Oh shit. If he is in New England, is that meaning Mallett is coming to Houston?

You better hope not. Mallett couldn't hit the water if he was falling out of a boat.

Really interesting with the Patriots selecting Jimmy Garoppolo. Hell of a lot better than Ryan Mallett.

 

[seahawksfan234]

Alright seriously what the hell are the Patriots doing???

Finally realizing that the Ryan Mallett experiment is a failure.

 

[JDM]

I think Mallett still stays for the year at least.

 

[mcnabb7542]

There it is, Mallet is in final year of his contract...

 

[JDM]

Yeah, he is. I'm assuming this means he wants to walk, but I think he's still here for the coming year as a rookie isn't likely to be enough insurance.

 

[mcnabb7542]

ESPN is reporting that if Manzel would have fallen to them last night they would've taken him...

 

[RegentDenali]

Lock and load. And here we.....go!!!

 

[seahawksfan234]

ESPN cutting to commercials for the Seahawks pick. No surprise.

Just heard Seattle took Justin Britt OT Mizzou

 

[RobToxin]

Okay:

Here we go.

Mettenberger? Murray? I think QB goes here to Houston.

 

[RegentDenali]

Seahawks get that Oline help. He's obviously targeted for a move to RT.

OT Justin Britt, Missouri

STRENGTHS Solid build with a stout base and long torso. Quick enough to cut off the outside rush and give help where it is needed. Recognizes the blitz and displays good enough agility to adjust to movement. Good work ethic. Very good weight-room strength -- cleans nearly 400 pounds.

WEAKNESSES Operates out of a 2-point stance in a spread-option offense. Falls off blocks and does not finish. Very average sustain. Limited body control and recovery speed. Late to reach the block point on the second level. Does not create movement in the run game. Gives too much ground in pass protection.

BOTTOM LINE College left tackle with enough length and foot quickness to handle the blind side in a pinch, but is more ideally suited for the right side and could be best suited for a swing backup role. Has played nearly every position on the line and could add depth as a positional, wall-off blocker.

I like that the Seahawks have drafted OL and WR with their first two selections.

 

[Texas Jefe]

so, Texans could have got Manziel or Bortles, instead they get Mallet.

 

[RobToxin]

They are not going to turn the team over to a rookie QB.

 

[RegentDenali]

I like that the Seahawks have drafted OL and WR with their first two selections.

I do as well. But the Britt pick is going to get flack. He was rated more of a later round guy for most, but he fills the need for the Seahawks at the RT.

 

[RobToxin]

Texans intent on drafting unspellable names.

 

[Camfantasy]

Uva sucks cock

 

[RobToxin]

@SI_PeterKing: There's this position called "quarterback,'' Texans. Fairly new one. Might want to familiarize yourselves with it

 

[JDM]

They're doing it right. They haven't even had mediocre value on a QB yet.
