Wait a minute, are we happy to give up a load of picks because we trust in Joe Douglas to have a great strike rate with the ones that are left, or are we happy to give them up because no one knows anything this year and so it's less likely that they'd turn into good players anyway? I feel like it's important we agree on one justification for this rather than running a bunch of diametrically opposed ones simultaneously.

I agree and I'm on board with trading for him if it's an option, as I have already said. I just find it amusing that people are coming up with different and in some ways contradictory justifications as to why an ever increasing amount of picks would be worthwhile.

Personally I think we should give up 6 first round picks because some first round picks sometimes aren't great and if we didn't do it then Douglas would deliberately pick poor players with them to demonstrate why we should have and that will be just be proof of how awesome he is at drafting and roster management and drywalling and cooking and probably sex as well.

Start with 2 and change.

Go up to 3 if 2 isn't getting it done.

Go up to 4 if you have to win a bidding war with Miami.

What if we give up the #2 pick and our next 15 2nd-round picks? Given our track record on 2nd-round picks, it would be a steal.

Houston last team without a HC

Beans has been passed up for every vacancy

Watson likes Beans

My hunch is Houston hires Beans to appease Watson

Sadly I would consider Watson NOT going to our division rival a W.

My dad always says he's undefeated at tailgating

Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about

We’ll be back here soon, Kings

Watching those highlights and I couldn't help but get angry at the idea that J-Co would be off the team next year because they wanted him to basically be a 4th/5th receiver.

One of the most inexplicably stupid moves in a franchise full of them.

I love the camera angle of David Harris having nothing but green grass in front of him at the 40, and then a 33-year old tight end chases him down at the 20 like he's Usain Bolt.

David Harris was many things, but fast was not one of them.

That's not just any 33 year old tight end either, that's all 280lb of Alge Crumpler who wasn't exactly known for his blistering pace.

Let us not forget he was also the originator of krumping

I wonder when we can finally put this thread aside.
