You can feel the happy feet. Yeah it’s his first action but that team did him NO favors. Solid tackles and nothing in way of wr or interior line. Should’ve kept their 12 pick and taken JSN with Stroud. I love Anderson but that was such a mistake I feel like.

Unreal people were praising the Texans for that. One of the dumbest trades I can remember… even if Will Anderson becomes a pro bowler you have to protect your rookie QB first

Stroud has always been seen as someone who would need a year or two to figure it out. I don’t expect him to be a stud this season. 

He has the arm talent, but I think you are right. The transition from the OSU offense to a below average Houston offense will take time…

Not sure this means Stroud isn’t ready.  Cam Newton looked not ready for the NFL his first preseason game and then rewrote the rookie record book.   

it’s fast, new, and vanilla.  nonstarters around them compound it all.  Never the best setup for any rookie.  Gameplans matter for rookies.  And I won’t freak out if Bryce Young doesn’t look like Tom Brady on Saturday.

Texans about to find out real soon why you need a Oline for a young QB.

 

Im so thankful we finally built an above average Oline. Bryce definitely has a better supporting cast than Stroud right now.

For some reason they aren’t playing all of their starting OL. Seems like an odd move when you are trying to develop your rookie QB…

Texans just doing Texans things. Like seriously, why TF would you not only risk development, but injury throwing him out there with backups? That sounds like some Rhule type sh*t honestly.

    • I’m going with Nick Emmanwori as the pick right now. Charlie Campbell has him ranked 5th on his post combine big board and another safety is needed.
    • That is ridiculous on several levels. First of all you have to spend 90% of your cap space every year so the idea you can just not spend it every year is against the CBA. Secondly your job is to assemble the best team you can for the fans players and team. Not to save money for the owner.  Third many players who are considered great underperform while others like Luvu and Jackson have overperformed. What about a  great player like Derek Brown who was injured and missed all of last year. Was he a waste of money?? Sure pay DK a fools ransom and hope he stays healthy. He didn't even get 1000 yards last year which averages out to 60 yards a game or play all 16 games.  And lets be real, Jones and Watson aren't  great but they aren't being paid that much either. Real glad you aren't the GM.
    • Not necessarily, they very well could just be waiting on the players who will get cut in the coming weeks/months as cap casualties and wanting to have the cap room to be able to offer more than other teams (likely our best shot at finding immediate pass rushing help for next year at this point). Also wouldn't be the end of the world to try and roll some cap into next offseason to have more space to go after bigger FA's. That's a better move than signing guys who really won't help much more than whoever else we can get on minimum or rookie deals.
