I think we might see more of the TE being used then what some have been thinking.
We know the Rams didn't use the TE much in the passing game but from everything i am seeing Taylor and Callahan will have every option open. Like you said, Dalton needs a good TE and with Sample he just seems solid in every aspect and is more likely to stay healthy (knock on wood) then a TE like Eifert.
We will see, i knew about Sample and did think he would fall further then he did prior to the Draft. But we all know how the Draft goes and we got the best blocking TE which is very valuable. Other teams in the 2nd round were going to take him right after us too from all reports. To trade back and get him while adding another player actually might be the best move in this Draft and i liked everything that went on. Got my 2nd favorite Linebacker in Pratt, an athletic, freak talent at DT in Wrenn and the best RB in the entire Draft in Traveon Williams in the 6th round.
I see no reason why our offense shouldn't be Texans 2012 redeux.
Mixon similar to Arian Foster
AJ similar to Andre
TEs (hell our coach is James Casey lol)
They did a ton of PA boot because of the strong run game, and it helped take the pressure off of Schaub, who was actually a pretty good QB when in the right system (similar to Dalton, got a lot hate despite doing a ton of good for the franchise).
We'll see!
