I like Jennings, Canfield, D.Byrd. If Ricky Jean Francois keeps falling, he would be a good pick as well. Oh, forgot about Freeman.

And the Giants grab Bomar the pick before us. Oh well.

James · #3 04-26-2009, 01:52 PM

Another TE . . .great

papabear · #4 04-26-2009, 01:53 PM

i'd love the casey pick if we didn't already take a TE....he could run the wildcat for us maybe???

Wow! Casey. No way I thought he would wind up with the Texans. They must have thought him too good to pass up, because I'm pretty sure they would have expected to take a running back by the 5th round. I had Jennings in the 3rd round in mocks where he was available.

He was listed at 71 on Gosselin's top 100. I think Rick Smith looked at his board and saw value. However, Ingram was rated even higher and is younger so he has more upside but there are injury concerns.

Wow, James Casey from Rice. Two TE's, did not see that. Good value though.

James Casey

What the hell, let's have Barwin convert back to TE too.

Keith · #10 04-26-2009, 01:56 PM

A nice value pick for sure, but are the Texans really going to carry four TE's on the roster?

I'd be a lot happier about this pick if I understood the plan the team has for RB this season. I just can't put faith in Chris Brown being that backup to Slaton. Nope.

popanot · #11 04-26-2009, 02:01 PM

I'm wondering if they have a possible deal in place to trade Daniels for a RB...??? Either that, or they're intenting is to bulk up Hill for backup T??? They think they need to bulk up special teams??? Hell, I have no idea...

This has officially become a head-scratcher second day draft...

Nconroe · #12 04-26-2009, 02:04 PM

maybe we're going 4 TE's in the redzone, just kidding.

dadmg · #13 04-26-2009, 02:05 PM

Mayock's loving our draft over on NFLN.

idymoe · #14 04-26-2009, 02:06 PM

As of pick 156, still available rb's are Jennings, Ringer, Peerman, Ian Johnson, Kory Sheets, Devin Moore, James Davis, & Javaris Williams. Hope there's not a big run before we get to pick again.

Well, it looks like taking Casey was a real BPA pick. Also, there's still hope for a RB before we are through. It would have been nice to get a head hunter. Is Michael Hamlin still available at SS?

Or maybe a pick in 2010 ?

popanot · #17 04-26-2009, 02:10 PM

I can't think of a team that needs a TE that hasn't already fill that position. I was thinking Eagles, but they took a TE right after us. The Gaints maybe???

I wonder how much Buffalo likes Owen?

They did draft Shawn Nelson though.
