After watching an ungodly amount of college tape, as well as watching all 2009 Texans games multiple times in recent weeks, I have worked out what I believe to be the best outcome of the first three rounds of the 2010 NFL Draft for the Houston Texans. Round 1 With the loss of Dunta Robinson, the Texans have a huge hole to fill at corner. They need a starter. Someone who can ...

Who is your team getting in this scenario?   1st Overall Pick - St Louis Rams – Sam Bradford – QB – Oklahoma Most people see the Rams ...

"The Rams should offer the No. 1 pick to the Chargers for Rivers and Antonio Gates." The NFL, more than any other major sports league in North America suffers from what I like to call "Home-team induced stupidity." Every fan in the country seems to think that his team's side of a trade proposal is far more valuable than anyone with half an ounce of common sense should. However, if you try ...
