    What bs r u trying to push now? Trying to somehow spin that me quoting u, is another way of saying the trade was a wasted pick? Dude stop embarrassing yourself and stfu.

    Draft picks are overrated = as long as we filled a positional need. (Your explaination). We traded this cb to fill a positional need, no?

    When i quote u, it somehow means im trashing the trade? Waste of time talking to delusional BoB defender

    Lol and u can interpret however u like. Delusional BoB defender thinking any texan fans that doesnt defend everything BoB does is a hater.

    Fact stands that i havent said this trade was a wasted pick and u went BoB defense mode on me for no reason.

    Thanks for sharing this! I have hope that Conley and Johnson can be our starters next year, if we don't resign Roby. I think our man-to-man scheme is more to his strengths.

    The word was he was a man corner and the Raiders were playing him too much in zone. He looked great in his natural habitat.

    Not surprising. He plays well, gets a new contract.

    I dont think so. He did alright in his 1st season with a new team. He'll be better this year.

    Texans basically will get 2 years out of him. He is just not worth $10 million dollars at the moment.

    If GC has a good year, I think we'll sign him to a longer contract. Precedent was set with Roby this year and Conley has the opportunity to get a new deal (maybe during the season) if he plays well.

    So well get 1.5 years of mediocre CB play out of a 3rd round pick. Sweet. Thats pretty good value for a Texans 3rd round pick.

    No point in overpaying now. He’s signed for this following season either way. Plus, It’s not like he dominated at the CB, who needed a change of scenery, hence why he was traded for a 3rd round pick. He’s can better than average, but it’s fringy if he can get to the level of potential he has.

    You don’t pay 10 million unless the guy is pro bowl quality good. Maybe the Texans want to make him earn his coin.... A solid motivational tool.

    If he puts it all together, and earns 18 million, the Texans will cross that decision bridge there and then.

    Yep. Billy Bob at his finest. SMH. This team needs to fire this guy sooo badly. Unbelievable.

    Getting a year and a half out of a guy for a 3rd Rd pick seems like good value to me.

    If he has a good season they will re-signin him, or they might re-sign him this off-season to a cheaper deal like they did with Hargreaves.

    So do you think guys like Jaelen Strong and Braxton Miller were good value picks? Honest question.

    Conley is a better value than those guys.

    I didn't like the Strong pick

    Miller couldn't make the transition to wr.
