    C'Boys just traded up to right before the Texans. They must want a guy they think the Texans want.

    CB?

    Ouch....I would've liked Jenkins to be there for Houston....Freaking Cowboys trade up and take him. Now, what does Houston do? Balmer or Merling, perhaps?

    Is Duane Brown considered a reach here, or no? I guess it's here or never for the Texans without a 2nd rd pick. Hell, might as well trade down again if they can. Maybe someone wants to jump on a wr or Henne.

    I think so. He was projected as a 3rd round pick, but with the rush on OT's he will definitely go higher.

    ESPN ALWAYS goes to commercial when the Texans pick. They did this last year, too. Damn, they don't even mask their hatred of Houston-based teams.

    Projected as a 3rd round pick. Should've traded that crap. He better be good.,

    Kiper had Brown rated ahead of Sam Baker after Otah.

    For what it's worth, he was rated ahead of Sam Baker and Gosder Cherilous in Mel Kiper's mock draft. He's also a mobile LT, so he should fit our zone blocking scheme.
