Congratulations Texans fans, I thought you guys got two steals in DT Frank Okam and RB Steve Slaton. I had Frank Okam as the third best DT in the draft and Steve Slaton will surpise alot of people and will be a steal as well. I had him right up there with F. Jones and J. Charles as far as talent goes, you could say he actually was the best pure RB in the draft. Congrats!

I think Okam will mold into a really good tackle if he sheds a few pounds.

What do you guys run a 3-4 or 4-3? Any case the guy would have played a DE in the 3-4 or a NT in the 3-4 which is why I wanted him. He looked great at Texas at times. Like alot of UT players he gets the "lazy" tag, but look at his numbers they're comparable to Ellis and Dorsey. Okam recieved just as much attention and double teams as the other two top DTs, and he still managed to put up good numbers. Your right about his weight, he needs to lose some and then I think he'll be a force.
