Official 2019 NFL Draft - Round 1 Thread

Crap. There went Dillard.

I suppose I would take Cody Ford or Greg Little here. Maybe Murphy if we want a CB.

Chuck, I bet it's a mob scene at the Texans' draft party in PC.

I can't hardly hear the TV what with the shouting and horns blowing and whistles and whatnot. They have a murga playing over near the bar.

With Dillard gone, Jawaan Taylor from Florida is a no brainer here, he was rated top 10 on some boards.

Texans take OT Tytus Howard of Alabama St. Could have waited for #52 or #53 to take him, I'm afraid.

This guy couldn't wait until the second round? Damn.

These dumbasses make me have to apologize to my Raider fan friends.

The murga guys quit playing and are packing up to go home.

We take a project in the 1st round?? Better draft a quarterback in the second round because we’re gonna need a good backup.

I absolutely hate how the Texans try to get cute in the first round, 🤦****♂️

They take the 50th overall player when the 10th overall player was still available.

It's like they didn't learn anything from Davenport.

Who knows, maybe this guy is less raw than we fear.

Dillard was going to be the pick - they never expected him to be close to 23. But there are some in the Org that think Howard will eventually be better.

Howard wouldn't have lasted until their picks in the 2nd.

Taylor off the board (for a 1st anyway) due to knee issues

Yes that's exactly what happened because by the time the Texans pick @ 53 no left tackles would be left, probably not even Greg Little who the Texans along with everybody has cooled off on in recent months.
Another thing is that Jawaan Taylor and Cody Ford are both right tackles.
Lots of folks will question this pick just like the NY Giants drafting a second-round rated QB with the 6th overall pick in the Draft will be severely second guessed.

The Texans could still trade up from their second round pick.

According to AL.com, Howard was a high school quarterback who then switched to tight end when arriving at Alabama State. Then he outgrew that position to become an offensive tackle - 6-5, 322lbs! That tells me two things - he must have a lot of quickness to have QB and TE skills under that body and secondly, he'll be dead by the time he's 25 if he keeps adding weight that fast. Better hire someone to keep him away from the barbecue joints, fried chicken shacks and mexican food places or he's going to become Un Madre Grande.

So are we going to start the the fire the GM thread?
