They usually talk over the draft. No point of going. This year its at Miller Outdoor Theater for the first time. Only draft parties I go to are the Rockets ones. They are much better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance Also, any love for Hamilton from FO? They like Hamilton, but they like Stingley more. They like Walker, Stingley and Hamilton at #3. It'll be tough if Walker and Stingley are both there, but the thought is Detroit goes Walker. This could change as we're 8 days away, but that's what I'm hearing as of now. Haven't heard anything on Deebo. I know WR is an option at #13, but so is OL, DE, and DB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ObotimusPrime Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) My thoughts are that we should draft OL, and Edge Rusher with our first two picks and and grab a WR with our second. As mentioned during these last couple of months we need to see if Mills can be the guy as soon as possible. So tackle at #3 and I favor Evan Neal. His ceiling isn't as high as Icky's, but there is no way he busts. Right now in our rebuilding process we dependable players that can be our foundation and we can actually resign. For #13, I'm sure the Texans are looking at wideouts but, Lovie is a defensive coach and we need a good pass rush for that tampa 2 to be effective. Also, WR is so deep in this draft and a good one will definitely fall to #37. Edge Rushers arent as deep this year. My hope was that Jermaine Johnson would fall to #13, but it looks like its very possible that he goes top 10. He is a little older than the average prospect, so maybe there's a chance. He looks like a perfect 4-3 edge rusher and from what I've been reading has great technique and will succeed where ever he is drafted. What scares me about Trayvon Walker at #3 is that he will need to be coached up a lot, and I've never had faith in the Texan's positional coaches. Not a lot of depth at edge rusher this year, so if one of the top 4 isn't there I hope we trade back. If we stay put, I hope we can draft one of the top 3 DB's. (Sauce, Stingley, or Hamilton) For #37, we definitely would need to get Mills a weapon and there are so many receivers this year. I personally like Christian Watson, Alec Pierce, George Pickens, and Sky Moore. Other than Moore, I prefer a speedy tall WR with a big catch radius, a little yin to Cook's yang. I know we wont solve all our problems in this draft, here's to hoping we can start off the new era with a bang. We have so many holes that we should go BPA, but I feel with this strategy we can get some bluechippers and figure out what we have with Davis Mills. If we trade back maybe we can follow the Brown's strategy in having two 1st rounders for the next couple of years (beyond 2024) and build the next great (or 1st) Texans roster and hopefully find a QB by any means necessary.

Let someone else take that gamble Haven't heard anything yet on Zion. Everything is through a mutual friend so I don't get direct access, but I hear enough and see plenty of text threads. One of my close friends from college is a NFL agent, but he's more plugged into league rumblings, less so with individual teams unless he has a player there (he doesn't have anyone on the Texans). I was bugging him more with the HC search earlier this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pastor Dillon Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 When was the last time the Texans made an obvious pick in the 1st round? Clowney at 1? it seems like it’s normally a surprise pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... yeah, I guess it was. I was thinking Amukamara that day, I remember now. 2 minutes ago, Texansfan713 said: Cushing was an obvious pick. DeAndre Hopkins was an obvious pick as well. Maybe Whitney Mercilus? Will Fuller, perhaps? Maybe it was a shock that's it was Fuller ahead of TCU WR Josh Doctson, but position was square on the head. Once Corey Coleman was gone, it was pretty much going to be Fuller, Doctson or Laquan Treadwell (at least that's how my memory serves me). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
