Reading The Tea Leaves Regarding Our First Round Pick
...or, Why The Texans Won't Take An Aircraft Carrier With Their First (Or Second) Picks. Look, guys and gals, no one is more on board with the idea of taking Galacticus with the first pick than I am. I would love to have someone on the D-Line who can tie up multiple blockers and free up Mario...
The Unlikely Scenario Redux -- Matt Duchene
Here at Raw Charge, we've made it pretty clear who we want in the draft. Our Mock Draft selection was preceded the last few months with posts about Lukas Krajicek having to serve as a top pair D-man, how bad things had gotten on the blue-line last season, etc. Yeah, we want Hedman. But I got me a...
Three And Out: Useless Predictions For The 2009 NFL Draft
It's back, baby! BRB's wholly worthless and ill-informed regular in-season feature, "Three And Out," is making a special offseason return for the glory that is the 2009 NFL Draft. You know the drill. I give you three (3) predictions that are sure to come to fruition (read: these predictions are...
It's April 22, 2009--What Do You Want Your Houston Texans To Do With The Fifteenth Pick?
Now that we're approaching the zero hour, let's change the rules of the exercise a bit. First, let's assume that Malcolm Jenkins is off the board. I honestly think he will be gone by the time the Texans go on the clock, so that's not a stretch. Secondly, let's put the option to trade the pick in...
It's April 2, 2009--Who Do You Want Your Houston Texans To Take At No. 15?
This is Version 4.0 of this exercise, so no need to repeat the rules. Week One saw Clay Matthews, Jr. as the people's choice. Week Two saw Malcolm Jenkins steal the title. Matthews then stole the crown back in Week Three. With the 2009 NFL Draft a mere twenty-three (23) days away, who does our...
It's March 25, 2009--Who Do You Want Your Houston Texans To Take At No. 15?
With Edition No. 1 and Edition No. 2 now in the books, we move on to Edition Three, roughly one month before the 2009 NFL Draft begins. The first foray saw Clay Matthews, Jr. win the crown of "Player Who Texans Fans Want With The Fifteenth Overall Pick If They Can't Trade Back." Week Two saw...
It's March 18, 2009--Who Do You Want Your Houston Texans To Take At No. 15?
The second installment of our newest pre-draft running feature is upon us. The maiden voyage saw Clay Matthews, Jr. emerge as the people's choice, though it was with only 34% of the vote. We're still more than a month away from the draft, so it's not too surprising to see this sort of lack...
It's March 11, 2009--Who Do You Want Your Houston Texans To Take At No. 15?
We're going to debut a new feature here at BRB that will run every Wednesday from now until the 2009 NFL Draft. It's not creative. It's speculative. It will have no bearing on what your Houston Texans actually do on April 25, 2009 when they go on the clock. But sweet Mariah...it should provide...
Texans Pick 15th in 2009 NFL Draft
Because it's never too early for draft speculation (now that the season's officially over, anyway), feel free to wildly speculate and/or opine on who you want your Houston Texans to select fifteenth overall on April 25, 2009. Go on. You know you want to.
