Not sure why you think that when Insider source Adam Schefter had started the Texans they would have taken Bryce. No team who has known that OSU cannot produce reliable QB and with his s2 score to go against, would risk taken CJ over Bryce. 

 

I said I thought Young was their QB1 and Ryans is pretty much confirming it. The S2 score has shown to be useless so let’s just never mention that again. Also both had great college highlights so cherry picking one clip vs another is just comical at this point.

Who the heck ever knows but there was lots of speculation we would have just gone with Will Anderson if Bryce wasn't there. Last minute Hannah McNair got involved, the brother of Cal McNair who has done a pretty terrible job with the franchise, and pushed (told?) the FO to draft Stroud. Obviously we ended up with both guys.

I'm still a bit shell shocked from the Astros losing 4 home games in the alcs so it's clouding my vision for Sunday! I'm expecting a good game.

Texans fan chiming here.  I think that Ryan’s did in fact like both guys and would’ve been fine with whichever guy fell to us.  the only thing I think may have been different is perhaps we go ahead and take Will Anderson at 2 and then trade up for Bryce at 3 or maybe 4 instead of how it actually went.  As far as what this other Texans fan above is saying, don’t take that crap serious…it’s all speculation. The only thing we know for sure is that the owner’s wife Hannah is more involved on the PR & “rebranding” side of things with the Texans this year due to all the fallout behind all the bad coaching hires and Deshaun Watson; that’s it really. There’s 0 evidence that she had any involvement in the drafting process.  

As far as Young, I’ve been reading you guys’ threads on him & CJ all season and the long & short of it is from my standpoint is, I think he’s gonna be fine..It just looks like he wasn’t as pro-ready as draft scouts touted he was. I think the bigger issue for you guys is Reich and the offense he has him running…y’all don’t really have the personnel for it and Young’s development is suffering a little b/c of it. 
 

Wouldn’t read too much into this week’s matchup tho.  As good as CJ has been, we can’t run it and our defense kinda comes and goes. We’re still a relatively young team so learning how to consistently win is something we’re still…well, learning lol.  You guys most definitely have a shot to notch your 1st win this week especially considering y’all are at home.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
