It makes more of a difference if you have a QB like Favre or Cutler how just launch it as hard as they can. It will have basically zero effect with Schaub at QB

Ummm... ouch? Are you saying because of his accuracy or lack of fastball... |

There's no ouch there? He doesn't throw as hard as them. His accuracy is fine. And his arm is strong enough. But it will never be considered a cannon. That's all I'm saying.

While that was impressive, I find Lane Johnson even more impressive! He's such a fluid athlete and man he can move!

I hear you.... I hadn't seen Johnson's numbers before your post (or had a chance to watch my DVR).
I would also keep Earl Watford in any discussion of interior lineman.
So current rankings (for me on O-linemen)
(1) T Lane Johnson
(2) G/T Terron Armstead
(3) G/C Earl Watford
I had Armstead over Johnson before today (and it is subject to change). But I think any of those guys would really help our o-line as future starters (depth for now). |

I only saw the guards and tackles numbers up. Is Joeckel not impressing? He was seriously amazing last year at A&M. I know he'll go top 10 for sure but there was serious talk at first overall.

He's not putting up gaudy numbers but either is Warmack from Bama, but their tape is all they need to go top 10. Warmack ran a 5.49, but how many times is your starting guard going to run more than 3-5 yards.

Im assuming for us right? Johnson's going top 20 or even 15. And I loled when Mayock was like this is Fragels first full season at OT, he was a TE before this year. In my head I was like, what number you want young buck, because you'll be a Texan.

Yea I know Lane will go early but D*** he looked smooth through all the drills. Reid has Texan written all over him. TE to T Big Ten and NFL.com compared him to Eric Winston I have been pegging him to us for awhile. PLz tell me someone saw the center out of CAL... I know we have our center and our center of the future but this kid is going to be a staple in the NFL for years to come either C or maybe even a pulling G

Texans met with my favorite WR from the draft class DeAndre Hopkins today!
They also met with Teo. Kubiak was saying positive things about him. Also, I heard there was a TON of people where Teo was speaking. Most in combine history. Some one asked him a question "Are you dating a real person right now?"

Schwenke (C out of Cal) did look like a pretty DARN good ZBS C with his ability to move and get to the 2nd level. Little worried about his anchor, but he looked decent at getting his hips sunk |
