Nothing wrong with taking another CB at 77, but I went under the assumption that we have Dunta Bennett Reeves and Molden, and I want to see if Gibbs can coach them up. I like Follett and his speed, plus he always seems to be playing in the backfield. And Adibi seemed to always be hurt.
I think if go into next year with only 2 RBs then we will be in trouble. Look at Dallas last year, what if they pass on Choice? Now that said, Rashad Jennings looks like the RB I have wanted the Texans to draft since day 1.
I like Pat White alot, and if he is drafted by someone who is creative I can see him being a huge difference maker. I do not see Kubiak as that coach. Plus if I take White, I do not have room for McGee, much less the coaching time for two projects.
Kory Sheets, Andre Brown, Cedrick Peerman, Tyrell Sutton, Gartrell Johnson, Herb Donaldson. I like a lot of different RBs and anyone of them could be a solid pickup.
Lastly i took Sidbury a lot earlier than the mock, why? I think he is going earlier than when they have him going.
I like your effort also, especially the attempts to save roster spots.
Lastly, I attempted to build a super strong Lb and safety team. Until we have those guys in place this team will always be a .500 team.

I feel the same way about alot of the team needs that you did. I certainly understand taking Sidbury in teh 5th because he definitely is not going to be there in the seventh. I strictly went by what was available in the mock, not what will in reality likely be there.
As far as Pat White goes, I see Seneca Wallace in him, that nobody thought he was going to be able to play QB, but there he is. He could serve as a third QB and backup slot reciever, like Wallace did in Seattle. Plus, all the kid does is win, despite all the naysayers telling him that he should move to WR at the senior bowl he stayed his ground, and showed alot.
Pettigrew, in the second, comeon PK, that would be the steal of teh draft. He blocks and he catches. He has more speed than Daniel Graham and better hands and blocks almost as well, and you saw what Graham got paid, and what he can do for his team. TE is near the bottom of my list for needs for this team but the value is just too good.
BTW, I like every single one of your selections, I just like the players I selected more at the spot I selected them.
