PrintWho will be our answer to Mr. Irrelevant? Stay tuned for some bad jokes and TexansDC and I talking to each other a lot.
The pick number? 7-20 (227) The time it'll take to get here for someone who has been doing this since 7 AM? Roughly equivalent to the time it would take Trindon Holliday to sprint across America.

"Your mother is a hamster and your father smells of elderberries! Now Go away or I shall taunt you a second time!"
Go Texans!
any thoughts on the smart pick here?
or do we just grab highest available?
If Donovan Warren is available....I do it.
Kevin Matthews is also a consideration.
"Lord, beer me strength."
He would be a bad FS.
I write for a Michigan football blog (as a baseball contributor). Too many mental issues there. He’s a solid corner, bad safety. Mental issues worry me. He’s been nonchalant most of his career. Shouldn’t have come out early. It’s why he’s still on the board.
by formerlyanonymous on Apr 24, 2010 2:32 PM CDT up reply actions
That said
I think he’d be a decent second option as a wild card take at corner.

in the 7th I dont care
Hes too good to pass up and Manis could be our safety warren could be nickle, dime dont care

Another reason...

Here's how my shadow played out on texanphil's site.
20. Dan Williams (57%) DT Tennessee
58. Morgan Burnett (11%) FS Georgia Tech
81. Brandon Ghee (29%) CB Wake Forest
102. Mitch Petrus (8%) OG Arkansas
118. Akwasi Owusu-Ansah (15%) CB Indiana (PA)
144. Cam Thomas (14%) DT North Carolina
187. Dezmon Briscoe (8%) WR Kansas
197. Myron Rolle (8%) SS Florida State
I might change some of the picks later when I review it so that it better jives with the first shadow draft (the ultimate goal being a “fake” possible Texans team) but I like this a lot more than what the Texans did.
- Rivers McCown, From Mom's Basement | Twitter
I think we all found out…..big NTs don’t work in Houston.
Petrus, while strong, may not be able to play in the ZBS because of his feet.
Smithiak has earned the benefit of the doubt….they have turned this team around through the draft.
"Lord, beer me strength."
and, to me, that is the big thing here...
Smithiak has taken us from 2-14 to 9-7 primarily through the draft.
As much as I wanna bitch about certain picks, I can’t. They have the track record on their side that they know what they’re doing.
"Lord, beer me strength."
I don't think the idea is to disparage the Texans picks
It’s just fun to see what could have and might have been.

Not one of the Texans draft picks are over 6'3"
just an observation…
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
I want to know
how good Agent Holliday’s hands are… i mean we all know that guy makes Speedy Gonzales look like a tortoise… and I am pretty sure smithiak wanted someone reliable to take Jakespeare’s place on the return game, so i just wanted to know how good his hands are didn’t get a chance to check him out much…
and It’s a big guy kinda name, Shelley, i am not gonna be able to say his name without a giggle
"Your mother is a hamster and your father smells of elderberries! Now Go away or I shall taunt you a second time!"
Go Texans!
scouts say he has good technique in fielding kicks and punts
and he has minimal botches/fumbles for his LSU career. He’s a kick return specialist
holliday = better starting field position for our offense..and the ability to take a screen 90 yards
by leacheatsbabies on Apr 24, 2010 2:44 PM CDT up reply actions
Not surprising
Drafting him that high, he is already 2nd on the depth chart (presumably behind Slaton) before even signing his contract.
He is a RB
Why wouldn’t he? He seems more like an every down guy then slaton. He’ll probably get 15-20 touches and slaton/foster will get the rest
Rudimentary creatures of flesh and blood, you touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.
I wouldn't be surprised
if Slaton ends up being the 3rd down back. They will probably try to minimize further injuries to him.
Ten picks to the Texans
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
I like that at the same time as the draft
LenWhale, Washington go to Seattle, and Jason Campbell goes to the Super Giant Black Hole AKA oakland
"Your mother is a hamster and your father smells of elderberries! Now Go away or I shall taunt you a second time!"
Go Texans!
Look at all those compensatory picks, why bother?
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
Todd McShay mocks that we will draft Danario Alexander with our last pick.
I don’t mind this pick. If he did not get injured, he could have been picked in the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd round. So he has a ton of talent. This guy could replace K Dub if necessary.

Maybe Smithiak was abducted and help hostage by a TE and developed Stockholm Syndromme and wakes up with semen in his sheets after a long night of wet-dreaming about the day will be reunited with his lover.
But in seriousness… why did we even bother with the first TE if we got this guy? I mean… Myron Rolle is STILL on the board. or we could have got RB Depth with Blounte. I’m not a GM but this IS a little weird.

Owen Daniels better be gone...
The Texans’ Coaching Staff should be drawn & quartered for their 3rd day draft picks. We didn’t address Safety, we drafted two TEs, we only got one OL on an OL that is one play away from the IR, and we passed on other talent that would have made more sense.
For having such a solid first two days, it is dissappointing to see the team miss on needs going into a season we needed to make a statement…

i'm pretty sure that
it was the second time he tore the acl in that knee, but he also tore it in that other one as well. so third total, but second in that leg.. i think

this too.
Good chance he’ll be pseudo Dunta here and want a contract that is at the level he WAS playing but has yet to proove he can return to form. from the interview he gave on Jim Rome, it sounds like he wont, but that could be one of those “Saying the right things for the camera” moments.
Winning season... Check. Higher expectation bar... big Check.

Maybe Hill or Dressen are gonners.

I think OD
Neither Hill or Dressen have trade value
agreed but OD has value to the team if he can return.
otherwise i’d say Hill is the odd man out. Dreesen is worth a 5-7th. 5th if we’re lucky. he’s produced in OD’s void

I pulled my
love muscle last night… then i had a girl pull it too
"Your mother is a hamster and your father smells of elderberries! Now Go away or I shall taunt you a second time!"
Go Texans!
what about her taco?
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
ESPN actually giving analysis here on Dickerson
Say it’s a great pick by the Texans.
"Lord, beer me strength."
Dickerson looks good on film.
Needs to bulk up a bit for blocking.

Move him
He is to light for TE and we already have plenty of them maybe he is going to be a WR
Why did we not get a center?
Chris Myers is HORRIBLE. That video of Kris Jenkins tossing him aside like he’s a child proves it.

^^^ This is what I'm worried about
take a look
Houston Texans Shelley Smith OL 6’4 293 Colorado
and then this
Myers, Chris C 6-4 295 28
identical stats? 2 lbs lighter? now I’m worried we are replacing Myers with a duplicate/copy/clone just a alot less “experienced”.
./shudder
Seriously why waste picks on so many Tight Ends?
in the world of Smithiak and Shanahan you can never be too rich, too thin , or have too many tight ends?
They want to fake people out .. the tight ends are the mystery players? Send them onto the field and you don’t know until they’re running down field which one is doing what?

surprise the other teams Defense while they die laughing?

Texans I-Formation for all of you who were wondering what it would look like to have 6 TE's on the field

This actually works
Dickerson at the HB TE
Hill as the extra TE on the line
OD and Dreessen on the wings
Thor at QB.
Other dude at FB TE
"Lord, beer me strength."
they HAVE to do this at some point.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
Rudimentary creatures of flesh and blood, you touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.
Hmm
Lets just run the craziest option play ever put together
Does anyone have any serious idea
As to why the texans would need 7 tight ends? I honestly don’t understand the thought process here.

got some good imput offhand from my roomate.
“Open tryouts for when OD gets traded” there may be some sort of truth to this. still even if so, 7 is alot.

MOTHER FU#$ER
I TOOK A SHOWER CAME BACK AND SURE ENOUGH SMITHIAK TOOK ANOTHER FUCKING TE??/WHY NOT JUST DRAFT TE 1-3 THEN THE SHORTEST PLAYERS LEFT 3-7
PANCAKES ACTUALY TWEETED
- Texans will unveil their six-tight end formation against the Colts. With the last pick in the draft, they took Pitt TE Dorin Dickerson. 43 minutes ago via web
So who’s the best TE in next year’s draft? Can we get a write up on him sometime tomorrow?
by formerlyanonymous on Apr 24, 2010 4:31 PM CDT reply actions
9 dudes
and I absolutely love 5 of the picks, and only question 2.
We filled needs, and got some serious pickups at the end. Another great job by Smithiak, imo.
Dunta's weightspeed was too low
With the first 3 they filled needs
the MLB? Meh. The TE? They’re worried about Daniels. Maybe gonna cut Hill.
McMannis and Smith? Another need fill.
Holliday? ELECTRIC. Dickerson? Project with upside. Serious upside.
