ESPN draft analysis video of Cushing
OLB Brian Cushing was the first of the big three (Cushing, Maualuga and Matthews) to be selected, 15th overall by Houston. The Texans needed some help on the defensive side of the ball as the team ranked 27th in the NFL in points allowed per game (24.6), and 22nd in yards per game (336.6) in 2008. This is good news all around, except for the guy that wrote the “why Clay Matthews and Brian Cushing will not be Texans” post on the Houston Texans message board.
