As has become common tradition, previous NFL players will announce the 2nd RD pick for their respective team. So far, I've seen reports on the following teams:

BUF: Jim Kelley
CHI: Dick Butkus
PITT: Mel Blount
MIA: Dwight Stephenson
SEA: Kenny Easley

HOU: Eric Brown

I know not all teams can or will have HOF superstars announce their pick, and that our years of existence pails in comparison to those above, but still, I find this somewhat depressing being a Texans fan. The cynic in me thinks that perhaps Chris Brown (of RB and INT pass lore) would've been a more appropriate historical connection. :(

Meh. We really have no history. We're only a teenager. It will come, but it will likely be in our 20's when it does. Having our Oiler history yanked away from us really impacts goofy stuff like this.

So, J.J. Moses was busy that weekend? Where's Chester Pitts?

One of these things just doesn't belong...

HOU: Eric Brown

I have zero memory of this guy. Looked him up, he only played 2 years for us, what? They could not have gotten a better known guy, Like Jamie Sharper or Seth Payne or Gary Walker or Aaron Glenn.

Just Saying

Hey we've got a well known former player. How about we use Andre Johnson to announce our second round pick? Oh wait, he' still in the league isn't he.
