    Yeah best player available wither the second pick imo. Everyone is leaning receiver but idk about that.

    In a perfect world, I'd love a receiver to go with the QB taken with the first pick.

    But don't force it. If there's someone else sitting there that is a superior talent, take him. There's holes all over the roster.

    If we want a KO/PR/WR then take Kirk, but if we want a pure WR Ridley's the man IMO.

      If we use our first 1st and the HOU 1st is a top ten pick, then I will not be surprised to see another twofer deal, as in a 2018 + 2019 1st-rounder, go down...

        I wouldn't be surprised either if sashi traded down again.

          Well, if you already have drafted your QB, and there is a good offer for your pick while you don't get to lose the player in the top of your list... I'd trade down, even if that keeps fans desperate.

            One downside of Houston continuing to lose and look like crap on offense is that it just sort of reinforces how badly we messed up by not selecting watson

              Well, we can agree that he looked great on the field. But also, no one can guarantee that a player who has already had ankle* problems will not have more in the future. Judging if we did well or not drafting him by only 4 games it's quite hasty. If he gets injured every season I guess we won't miss him that much. 

              It's not the same as comparising passing on Wentz. 

              EDIT: knee

                  Careful there Nero. You're now flirting with Garrett territory on the ankles thing.

                    Of course. Garrett showed some promise but if he keeps having ankle problems, he won't be a good draft choice. BUT, everyone would have chosen him, and you cannot guess that kind of things. Drafts can be evaluated after some years have passed, but I understand that meanwhile opinions can be throught out there too.

                      Houston is going to get a freaking win this weekend and it's so annoying.  They're playing the Cardinals who obviously don't have Carson Palmer, and NOW it appears they won't have their backup either (Stanton).  I literally have no clue who will be playing QB for them, but suffice to say that they probably won't be winning a game in Houston this weekend.  I could be mistaken, but I doubt it.  Houston defense will show up and I'd be completely surprised if the Texans don't win like 16-3 in a total snooze-fest.

                                Going into the season, I was hoping that the Texans wouldn't qualify for the playoffs and their pick would be in the #15-20 range.

                                They aren't going to lose out the rest of the season, but I can't see them being any better than 6-10 tops. I'll take it gladly.

                                    Going into the season, I was hoping that the Texans wouldn't qualify for the playoffs and their pick would be in the #15-20 range.

                                      Houston is going to get a freaking win this weekend and it's so annoying.  They're playing the Cardinals who obviously don't have Carson Palmer, and NOW it appears they won't have their backup either (Stanton).  I literally have no clue who will be playing QB for them, but suffice to say that they probably won't be winning a game in Houston this weekend.  I could be mistaken, but I doubt it.  Houston defense will show up and I'd be completely surprised if the Texans don't win like 16-3 in a total snooze-fest.

                                      You may end up being correct, but look at the standings. The Texans have given up a ton of points.

                                        If anything the assets are in place to be aggressive this year rather than trade back. And that’s what will happen in places  

                                        Picks are great but you have to put them all somewhere....but the FO know this I don’t need to tell them, just you lot.
