I think he was actually lined up at 3-tech when he got that sack on Cassel. He's a versatile dude, we need good role players like that.
Weird how Houston just left football. He went back to school and, according to some sources, had an on-going bout with depression. Poor guy.
Rhodes obviously was a GREAT pick. Pouha was solid. If we still had Houston around id be real satisfied. I loved Ceddy Hou. I wonder how hes doing. Also, another sad part about this draft is you also have to add Doug Jolley to the list right up there in our first round draft picks...SWEET
The guy we could have had in this draft that really hurts when you think about it: Round 4 109 Dallas Cowboys Marion Barber III Runningback Minnesota Oh, and not to mention this guy: Round 3 74 New York Giants Justin Tuck Defensive End Notre Dame
Yes we did trade it, but like I said before we got a stud in Kerry Rhodes, and I'm fine with that. When you draft an All Pro its hard to call it a bust draft.
I know. It's a really sad story. He was a good power back. You never saw him stopped by just one guy, and never behind the line of scrimmage. Then he just lost the heart for the sport. I really want to see an update on him, HEY BEAT WRITERS, IF YOU'RE READING THIS, GET ON IT.
"With the 9th overall selection in the 1995 draft, the New York Jets select Warren Sapp...er...select Kyle Brady, TE, Penn State"
We coulda had in the 2nd round and 3rd round Tuck, Jacobs, Barber, Mcneil, Frank Gore, etc Giants got 2 studs in Jacobs and Tuck from that draft
Giants had all of 4 picks and they still ended up with a kick-ass draft 2 11(43) Corey Webster CB LSU 3 10(74) Justin Tuck DE Notre Dame 4 9(110) Brandon Jacobs HB S. Illinois 6 12(186) Eric Moore DE Florida St.
Webster and Moore aren't anything special. Webster I remember used to get a lot of heat from giant fans and Moore is like a 3rd string isn't he?
I remember reading that Cedric Houston just didn't have the desire to play anymore, the day in day out wear and tear of being an NFL player. I thought he was going to be pretty good. Sad story.
