    Don't blame him...he's probably got 2 years along with O Brian to get this Brock era right

    I'll give Smith and OB credit for trying to give Osweiller everything they can to help him succeed.

    Not really sweating the 6th rnd picks, if we address needs and take best talent available at the same time.

    Uh oh.

    We have 40 yes's and 1 no. This may be the most popular pick in Texans history. Hopefully the masses are right in this one.

    Seriously, if he fails now, it's 100% on him. They've surrounded him with talent.

    I think the trade was a bluff . If they knew the next team was keying in on Hackenberg then maybe they thought that the nationally known and played out BOB and Hack connection might convince NY that we were going to take him OSweiler be damned . If the jets really thought that maybe they offer a better price in panic to swap picks with us .

    Either way 195 isn't gonna make a difference and I'm sure our front office had better information regarding who was looking at who and who could have traded up to take Martin .

    Chargers would have taken Martin; they just took Tuerk
