There was a run of nine picks in about 12 hours and he probably didn't expect it would move so quickly on a Friday evening. I'd say to give him more time. Maybe until the end of the day.

EDIT - nevermind. I'll third Winston.

It appears that the Texans have selected. I would agree to give them more time but the need for an O-Linemen is horribly obvious, they needed one this year but were given a chance to take a player of another position that is the once in a lifetime type. So it should be no doubt that is who the slect in the second round. I'd even bet on this exact selection being made in the real draft.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

With the 2nd pick of the 2nd round and the 34th pick overall the New Orlean Saints select..... Thomas Howard of UTEP.
ThomasHoward.jpg


Position: Linebacker School: UTEP
Status: Senior
Height: 6-3
Weight: 240
40-Yard Dash: 4.47 (EST)

Howard is still a very raw player. The Saints need linebackers very badly as they were the 2nd worst rushing defense in the NFL last year. The Saints had some young players at linebacker come on fairly strong during the final 4 games of the season, which gave me just enough confideince to select this raw talent that could use more time to develope then a safer more likely to fill in from day one A.J. Nicholson.


Strengths:
Amazing athlete with rare speed for the position...Has fluid hips and does a tremendous job when dropping into coverage...Has a great burst and closes fast...Terrific in space and makes plays sideline-to-sideline...Big hitter who will light people up...Changes direction well...Is an excellent pass rusher on the blitz...Very productive...Team leader and hard worker with top intangibles.

Weaknesses:
Gets by on his athleticism and lacks great instincts, which are essential for a linebacker...Can do a better job as a tackler...Struggles when taking on bigger blockers...Needs to hit the weights and get stronger...Doesn't react on the field as quickly as you'd like...Still developing and is not yet a finished product.

Notes:
Began his career with the Miners as a walk-on safety...Father was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in 1977 cousin was a member of the musical group En Vogue...A true workout warrior whose measurables are almost off the charts.


The New York Jets (Buckey247) are on the clock...

I was surprised that he lasted past the first round. He runs a legit 4.4.

I almost took him at 28 with the Jags, but ended up choosing Greenway. Both are somewhat raw (Howard came to UTEP as a safety and Greenway was a QB in high school if I remember correctly).
