The more I watch the Texans play, the more I want to get more pass rush from the DL. Then when I watch the Senior Bowl and the Shrine Bowl, I really want to draft Geno Atkins and Daniel Te'o-Nesheim. I realize that we drafted Okoye who had a 1.65 for a 10-yd split and a 7.46 Cone. Maybe he improves because of maturity and experience this year. Geno only had a 1.68 for a 10-yd split, but his 7.33 Cone is nice. He was also unblockable in Mobile and ate Iupati up. D. Te'o-Nesheim has numbers comparable to Barwin. In the Shrine Game he would have had 3 sacks or at least 2 intentional groundings. He has more 'experience' playing the DE position than Barwin does and is stout against the run.
DT-N : 40 - 4.73, 20 - 2.70, 10 - 1.61, Cone - 6.91, Shuttle - 4.18
CBrwn: 40 - 4.59, 20 - 2.68, 10 - 1.53, Cone - 6.87, Shuttle - 4.18
Now, imagine if you could Dan Williams being the Texans 1st round pick at #20.
1. DT Dan Williams
2. RB Ben Tate
3. DT Geno Atkins
4. DE Daniel Te'o-Nesheim
5. CB Kevin Thomas
6. RB James Starks
6. CB Crezdon Butler
7. OG Shelley Smith
