Yeah, saw that. Ugh... Maybe we need more DB's instead.

Yup, I'm noticing that too. Hope we come through too.
McKinney and Stron still on the board as well.

TEXANS have traded up w/CLE to pick #43!!

[Arky]

Texans on the clock!

[Roy P]

The Panthers trade up for Benjamin's clone - Funches. Twin towers theory. Makes my strategy for Jesse James & Blake Bell seem legitimate. ......The Texans traded up.....can't wait to see for who and how much we gave up.

[Roy P]

Lost a 4th and 6th. Gained a 7th from Cleveland.
The Falcons select Jalen Collins (not one of my guys)

[chuck]

I like this guy a lot.

[Roy P]

I am okay with Bernardick McKinney. Needed the ILB. Stephone Anthony was gone, so that was the 2nd best option. He can play OLB too.

[Arky]

Oy, guess the plan is to hold the opposition to zero points every game and kill 'em with FG's....

Offense..... gots to do something about that offense....

Radio saying the Texans have no 4th round pick tomorrow....

[popanot]

BOB isn't screwing around. He wants to kill with defense.

[barrett]

I just searched this guy to see who he is since I don't follow the draft as much as you guys. It was interesting to me that on the NFL.com draft profile that came up it lists for every prospect an NFL comparison. For Benardrick it lists Brian Cushing.

But we've also got a Savage offense !

[Roy P]

I think offense is coming. ..Rashad Greene, Jesse James, Blake Bell, a RB (Zach Zenner) and maybe Ty Montgomery.

[painekiller]

I'm not happy with the picks we gave up for a 2 down ILB, who can be schemed off the field by going to a spread. He is a thumper, but he is not good in pass coverage.

[Roy P]

I'm amazed that Eli Harold, Eric Rowe, Jalen Strong, and Jake Fisher are still available.

I feel you. That's why I have been advocating for the likes of Ben Heeney, Jake Ryan, and Bryce Hager. He is a guy who could be an OLB on 3rd down and he's versatile enough to play 3 downs....not to be used in Coverage.

The nfl.com draft analysis says he is able to turn and run with big TEs in pass coverage. So might be pretty good.

I think the question is who played on third down last year and is McKinney potentially better than he is.

Not that I have seen all his games, but not from what I saw. He was good moving forward, not backwards.
