If you’re wondering who that guy up there is, it’s Houston Texans general manager Nick Caserio.
Let’s be real.
This franchise and organization in general has been in the shitter for quite some time.
Gotta respect Lovie playing to win in Week 18 to screw Caserio and Co. out of the No.
1 overall pick, too.
Then of course we all know about the Deshaun Watson disaster.
Not anyone’s fault but that guy’s.
As did Bill O’Brien’s failed attempt at playing head coach and GM at the same time.
There’s a notion that Houston is absolutely selecting a quarterback with the No.
2 overall:
“2.
Texans have to pick a quarterback.
“Were all operating under the belief the Texans will pick a quarterback that Carolina leaves for them.
Im 90 percent on board with that.
“The Texans also pick 12th.
I think the Texans are going to go quarterback at two.
But in the last few days, Ive heard this about Houston GM Nick Caserio: Very conservative.
If he doesnt love a quarterback at two, hes not going to force it.
Detroit got rewarded handsomely with a great rookie year from Hutchinson.
The nugget at the end of King’s blurb from that personnel guy, though.
Insert whichever QB you want in there.
There’s a built-in history between C.J.
Stroud’s agent and the Texans, because that agent, David Mulugheta, also represents Deshaun Watson.
What an unenviable task.
Anyway, there might be some bad blood.
I don’t know if that precludes the possibility of Houston selecting Stroud.
It likely won’t be a dealbreaker.
That’s Anthony Richardson.
If you look at the trade the Texans make to get up to No.
3, it’s comprised entirely of picks they’ve acquired from the Watson blockbuster or from other teams.
You might be wondering why three EDGE prospects are off the board here.
First of all, Bowling Green’s Karl Brooks isn’t exactly an EDGE guy.
He’s 300 pounds andcanplay there.
I suspect he’ll kick inside in the NFL.
Lonnie Phelps is one of the most underrated pass-rushers in this class and could be a Day 3 steal.
The guy’s production at Alabama was off-the-charts special, particularly in 2021.
Thirty-one tackles for loss, 17.5 sacks and 101 total tackles?
As an EDGE player?
What the actual fuck?
Those are like cartoonish numbers.
Prove to your fan base that the organization actually gives a shit.
It’s SO well within your reach.
Don’t be that guy.
