    I would ask the organization to hand over the keys, because they are abusively drunk. :eek:

    Not a conspiracy theory, just has classic smokescreen potential while they feel out the rest of the draft.

    IIRC I don't think that there were a lot of strong indications that Mario was going to be the first pick in '06 until a few weeks before the draft.

    Or, rather than a smokescreen, it's just random s*** people made up to create talking points like 95% of all reports this time of year.

    Texans should not be looking for a "fair deal".. If the Browns want to move up they need to put their money where their mouth is. Simple as that. If not, Texans keep 1.1 & browns potentially lose out on the guy they want most. Win-Win for Houston.

    I hate February mock drafts, but I like Doug Farrar's work for SI:

    Ha Ha Ha Ha ...

    How funny is this shaping up...

    Texans are gonna talk themselves out of taking Icewater.
    Gonna go with hype and fanfair.
    If so....it will be a very costly mistake.

    Those are his Junior High numbers. But that's all they could find.

    I'm not sure about that, Luck ran a 4.67 and he's a better athlete than Bridgewater, I think the 4.75 40 time could be pretty close to what we should expect.

    I'm ok with them taking Bridgewater or Clowney oh but if they take Manziel dare i say it i would have to cheer on that team to the North for half the season.

    Do you really think Bridgewater runs a 4.55? I mean it wouldn't surprise me if you do because you seem to have all sorts of crazy ideas about him.

    ewwww NO.

    I want Bridgewater sooooooo bad.

    But, if the Texans drafted Manziel I would be disappointed, but not crushed.

    I do not think you can win a SB with Manziel, but he would be tons of fun to watch on Sundays.

    Please no Bortles. Please Please Please no Bortles. I don't like Clowney at all, but I'd take him over Bortles any day of the week.

    It doesn't really matter what he runs because it's not a big part of his game. My guess is he runs a 4.6.

    Well of course it doesn't really matter, but I have a hard time believing he'll have as good a 40 time as Andrew Luck, 4.7 something is more likely, which is why the 4.75 that random website was showing is pretty close IMO.
