    I really think that Ware will be the guy, if he's still available. Interesting that he still has Mike Williams falling. That's the feel that I git from Casserly a few days ago, the media is really hyping him, but the NFL guys aren't that sold.

    Well done mock.

    Im still hoping that somehow Merriman slips and we nab him. I wouldnt mind taking Ware at 13, but would prefer a trade down.

    I can't wait. I'm going to love it when one of the running backs falls, and the Texans have a decision on thier hands.
