Grade The Texans Draft

[NBT]

About halfway through the 2008 season now, and we can look back a little bit and say the gift #3B pick of Slaton was an A+. The picks still in limbo are #4 Adibi (he can't seem to hold weight, and thus he can't get on the field), and #5 Okam (why hasn't he had a chance to get in the game?).

#1 OLT Duane Brown is doing OK, but he will need to beef up in the offseason, and improve his conditioning to better stand the long NFL season.

So other than Brown and Slaton, i would have to give us an incomplete grade for this Draft.

I think Adibi looked good in the limited time he saw on Sunday. I don't know why he's "sick" every week, but I'd love for him to get some PT before the end of the season to see what we have with him.

Seems like I read where he's having trouble keeping his weight up. I don't know if it's because they want him to be heavier, or if there was some kind of illness that was making him lose weight. I hope they get it straightened out though.

Greenwood is hurt so Adibi might get the start next week:

I make that move anyway. Greenwood had his best year as a Texan last year, but the dropoff has been dramatic this year. It's obvious he's not going to be in the long term plans and probably gets cut. See X play the last few games so we know how big a need WLB is in the offseason.
