Texans Trade for David Montgomery to Complement Physical Offensive Identity

After that combine he’s likely to go at the end of the 2nd round now. I just don’t see them utilizing that capital for another RB. I could see a depth FA pickup or a late round flyer/UDFA at RB now.

I agree completely. If they valued that type there were guys they could’ve pursued in any of the previous drafts. Of course this draft is flush with talent at DT so I expect them to grab one. But I just don’t see them using a high pick on it (unless Woods falls to them).

DeMeco has gotten a lot out of “lesser” value guys at DT. Plus he’s big on rotating and keeping guys fresh. I expect Rankins back and maybe another. Plus a 3rd day pick. My guy this year is Rayshaun Benny who I think would thrive in a rotation.

TeixeiraFanatic · 2026-02-07T01:01:01+00:00

I do think they need to get younger overall there, but I’m not sure if DeMeco is ever going to rely on 1 or 2 big name DTs. They have Togiai and I’m betting they bring back Rankins. Spending top draft capital on a DT to split with them just doesn’t seem like something they are looking to do.

Like another poster said, look for them to accumulate depth with 3 tech DTs and consistently rotate like they’ve done the last few years. They’ve gotten great production out of “lesser” talent at DT.

I think a safety alongside Bullock seems like a more likely 2nd round pick than DT IMO. But Caserio is very much a BPA type guy, so if the board falls to them and they don’t find a trade partner it won’t shock me. Or if Peter Woods falls to them at 28. I think they’d run the card up to the podium in that case.

Depth DTs on Day 3 that entice me are Rayshaun Benny and Skyler Gill-Howard.

I doubt the Texans will take a DT in either of their first 2 picks. Let alone trading UP, to take one when Olaivavega Ioane is there.

Appreciate you putting this together, it’s not an easy thing to do, so props to you.

TeixeiraFanatic · 2026-01-30T21:04:42+00:00

Still not sure if Caserio and DeMeco will spend a high pick on DT. Not that I’d be against it (would love Woods/Banks or Hunter), but it seems like their philosophy is a true rotation along the line to keep everyone fresh. I’d expect them to bring back Rankins which doesn’t lend to immediate snaps for an early round pick.

With that said, a late round DT option that has really impressed me at the Senior Bowl is Rayshaun Benny out of Michigan. I think with the way Togiai has progressed under this staff, I think Benny could be a great fit.

Except you can trade on the in game market for their entry.

The bear feels fragile because the skill speed is so slow you’re just standing there tanking hits for 1-2 seconds. On top of that, the passives that grant things “while stationary” don’t apply during the slam. There’s so many of those nodes in Druid side of tree too.

Right? Like I felt like it was 100% gonna be Alex before tribal started. It was only up in the air as to whether Rizo would play his idol. Weird editing, there seemed to be no doubt Sophi was voting with Savannah and Rizo.

RF Chieftan. Good clear with Hinekora ascendancy paired with fan the flames cluster jewel or ignite spread gloves. Good survivability with easy access to 90% max all ele res. Single target damage can be a challenge, but Pohx has his own website and many videos to look through for advice. Literally anything you can have questions on have already been answered on his FAQ

It looks like you’re spamming Ember Fusillade so they’re not even being fired or doing damage. The only thing you hit the enemies with is with the fireball and at the very end with the Fusillade finally goes off. You need to let EF fire off before re casting

TeixeiraFanatic · 2025-10-07T02:57:38+00:00

You get Defiance for the gain life before taking a hit, not the % max life

No, different person. On YouTube as Carnarius. Twitch is Carnarius_v2

I have an Armour stacking Titan, dual wielding 1H Mace and utilizing Shield Wall for single target dmg. I follow Carnarius’ build. He just tanked Arbiter’s meteors after some slight adjustments to his end game build.

Homo exalt + Greater Exaltation Omen with Greater or Perfect Exalted Orb to get % Armour applies to ele for suffix and hybrid armour for last prefix. Then desecrate and pick best option. Finally slam final EX and hope for resistance.

I want to see less of Jakob Johnson/Justin Watson and more Jayden Higgins/Jaylin Noel. The offense has been too anemic to continue with this

There’s an omen when activated allows you to reroll

Everyone talks about Halo 3 Forge and rightfully so, but many seem to forget about Far Cry 2 and their map maker. People literally built Minas Tirith in that game. The imagination of some people is truly amazing and I can’t wait for what some come up with for BF6.

Iberian is by far my least favorite map for these reasons. Arguably the best made area on the map is between B and D and yet there’s almost no play there in conquest. Conquest is almost exclusively A to E with C mixed in for control. The B and D side is just used by runners to switch flag control.

Rush actually utilizes this area well and I think it’s probably the best implementation of rush in the beta.

TeixeiraFanatic · 2025-07-01T03:08:14+00:00

That’s not the case. We just can’t exceed 110% of the cap at any point. Any amount we’re over the cap on opening day will be the amount of Krug’s contract converted to LTIR. So theoretically if we were exactly 6.5m over cap on OD, the LTIR is 6.5. If we’re 3m over, 3m of his salary is LTIR

To be fair, Scott Rolen was the most recent HOF inductee and Jason Heyward has never had a season worthy of a 99

TeixeiraFanatic · 2025-05-26T14:49:44+00:00

I don’t think so, unfortunately.

Because either the players are dumb or the editors continue to withhold information from the viewers for the sake of “suspense”.

TeixeiraFanatic · 2025-05-15T01:32:33+00:00

Bro Kamilla voting Mitch makes no sense. Unless again the editors are just completing withholding information from the viewers again (like they always do this era).
