Official 2012 NFL Draft Round 2-3 Thread

[Keith]

...the search for Jacoby's replacement continues...

[WMH]

I'm seeing one of following for us in the 2nd:
Sanu - WR - Rutgers
Quick - WR - App St.
Massie - OT - Ole Piss
Adams - OT - OH St.

Hill has the measureables but my gut tells me Randle is going to be a better all-around WR and is a better fit for this team. I'm hoping they can somehow snag him, but they'll have to move up to get him. No way I wanted Fleener at #26, but he'd be intriguing in this offense and I might move up a few picks to get him if he starts to drop. I have a feeling he'll go to the Colts, though, since he's Luck's buddy and they have zero legit TE's on roster. If it's WR, I assume Jeffery, Sanu and Quick will all be there. Massie is intriguing. I don't think they touch Adams.

You could be entirely wrong about Hill. I think he will be a monster in a year or so. Randle may do well also.

Never said Hill will be a bust. I like him and he may very well have a nice career. I just think that Hill will be a straight-line speed threat, whereas, Randle will be a better all-around (blocking, slot, middle and deep) threat and fits better with what this team needs from a #2. JMHO. It's sort of the Mike Wallace vs. Antonio Brown syndrome. They're both great players, and one team might prefer Wallace's straight-line speed and another team might prefer Brown's all-around style. I think the Texans need a Brown-type WR as opposed to a Wallace-type WR (atlthough, I'll take anything to upgrade what we have now).

I'm listening to 610 AM radio right now and FWIW John McClain, a guest on the show, just said very confidantly that the Texans WOULD NOT take a WR UNTIL the 3rd round. I for one will be surprised if that scenario plays out, but we'll see?

I think I'd go CB or OL if Round 2 went this way:

I'd probably take Trumaine Johnson or Josh Robinson over Sanu.

Let's not get caught up in semantics here. I didn't say you thought Hill would be a bust, only that Hill would be a better Pro. I just think you are wrong on that score.

Yeah, I see that. Thanks!
