Texans love UW Tight Ends. I'm jealous at a level - but still love Finley.

Dorin Dickerson has been high up on Mel Kiper's best available list since the start of today's drafting.One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Yeah, corner appears to be picked over. What about Donovan Warren? Anybody know anything about him. Of the highest ranked guys left, he's one of the few that is a bigger corner."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson

[quote="Lurker64"][quote="red"]Just remember the rule that everybody knows. Two major injuries in college and you NEVER draft them.Originally posted by missionHere's Neal's injury history:Originally posted by redneal seems to have a pretty long injury history just like harrell did. he's also a pick for a position we don't really need, like JH was. I hope i'm wrong thoughOriginally posted by missioni thought we had a 5th round pick ??
Redshirted with a knee injury.
Missed 5 games with turf toe
Played through a torn labrum.
It's not anything exceptional. Big guys are going to get banged up. The fact that the guy would play like 80 plays a game at Purdue means that he's probably not that fragile.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

Bedard is on twitter slamming Lefevour saying that he's glad he's dropped because his ego needs to be put in check. Saying stuff like he wouldn't throw at the combine and wouldn't talk to any team without going threw his agent or something like that.Originally posted by Bossman641I'm thinkin the same thingOriginally posted by imscott72Originally posted by HarveyWallbangersI'd say CB or OLB. Also could use RB, QB, TE. Of course, they could really like somebody that isn't playing a position of need.Originally posted by Lurker64I'm guessing that our two picks in the fifth will be between QB, WR, OL, and DL. Maybe an RB.
Dan Lefevour? Would be a nice project for MM..

I agree. Guy isn't a dunce, but pretty over-rated, IMHO.Originally posted by SparkeyThats reason enough to NOT TAKE HIMOriginally posted by Maxie the TaxiDorin Dickerson has been high up on Mel Kiper's best available list since the start of today's drafting.

Read & React: Reacts quickly to throws in front of him, although his footwork is not always sound. Struggles to get to jump balls even when in ideal position. Could improve anticipating routes.Originally posted by HarveyWallbangersYeah, corner appears to be picked over. What about Donovan Warren? Anybody know anything about him. Of the highest ranked guys left, he's one of the few that is a bigger corner.
Man Coverage: Quick hip turn and feet to change direction but is not fluid in his movements. When he finds the ball, has the hand-eye coordination to make a play but doesn't have great hands. Comes out of his high, slow backpedal early and gets turned around to give up easy completions. Loses his balance when trying to plant, affecting his ability to close. Plays a lot of press-bail coverage, yet is inconsistent staying with quicker receivers downfield. Must work on getting his hands on the receiver within the five-yard area to knock them off their route.
Zone Coverage: Pounds and wraps up receivers making receptions in front of him. Jumps routes when quarterback locks onto a receiver. Jumps underneath routes to make tackles. Poor backpedal, allows receivers to eat up cushion.
Closing/Recovery: Physical closing on receivers. Takes wasted choppy steps coming out of his backpedal. Body control when closing in zone coverage is erratic. Has trouble finding the ball consistently and sometimes fails to get his head around. Can lose track of his man and will mug receivers when looking back to the quarterback.
Run Support: Works hard to get off tight end blocks on the edge when supporting the run. Is not strong enough to rip off consistently, put will attempt to force plays inside and reach the sideline. Backs typically don't elude him once in the grasp. Stays home against misdirection plays and cutbacks.
Tackling: Secure tackler in the open field who brings his hips and wraps with authority. Strong enough to knock the ball out of the receiver's hands during or after the catch is secured. Effective arm tackler but bends at the waist to tackle in space instead of dropping his hips, will miss tackles against NFL backs. Lunges and leaps at the feet of running backs when supporting the run, which is not acceptable at the next level.
Intangibles: Loves the game. Plays with passion and toughness. Directs other defensive backs into position. Father, Alvin, played football at New Mexico State, his godfather is former USC and Chicago Bears safety Mark Carrier, and cousin, Chuckie Miller, was a defensive back for UCLA, the Indianapolis Colts and Detroit Lions.www.ccso228@twitter.com

Originally posted by SparkeyTennant and Moats are interestingOriginally posted by Maxie the TaxiOriginally posted by OS PAHow about RBs Dwyer or Dixon? Matt Tenant, C? Mitch Petrus, G? Shad Jones, S? Austen Lane, DE/OLB? Greg Hardey, DE? Arthur Moats, OLB? Trindon Holliday, WR/SP? Larry Asante, S? AJ Jefferson, CB? Brian Jackson, CB? Syd'Quan Thompson, CB?Originally posted by BretskyOriginally posted by pittstang5Damn it all! Franks now Cox. Trading up for Burnett is screwing us for decent CBs left.
Too bad we couldn't package our 5th and 6th of one of the better CB's.
Still plenty of players left though; I just don't know which one to want anymore
Thanks for the list OS PA; I was just reading up and Moats is very intriguing as is Greg Hardy. Now that Schofield is gone no strong feelings. Would be excited about a kick return specialist or a pass rusher
I like the way you think.TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER
