Pick Analysis: Hill is a big, blocking tight end with adequate speed. He is almost like having a third tackle in the game. He's probably the best blocking tight end in this draft. The Texans have the receiving tight end in Owen Daniels, and now they have the blocker to go along with him.

Upon his return, Hill showed the superb pass catching ability that he displayed as a sophomore, grabbing 17 of his total of 19 receptions for 2008 in the season's final seven games. |
When I saw the pick, the first thing i thought of was that we were all saying we need fb type rb to help carry that load in the redzone for slayton... this pick makes sense to me in that it will help us in the rz and it will also protect our probowl te from being that battering ram.. .
