Is Texans GM Rick Smith the New Matt Millen?
XLog.com writer and NFL scout Jayson Braddock has labeled Houston Texans GM Rick Smith as the “New Matt Millen.” Millen, a four-time Super Bowl winner, is most notably known for his seven-season general manager stint with the Detroit Lions. In Detroit, Millens’ Lions went 31-81 and encountered some of the worst management moves the NFL has ever seen under one general manager. His draft failures include Joey Harrington, Kevin Jones, Drew Stanton and receivers Charles Rogers, Roy Williams and Mike Williams in back-to-back-to-back first round picks from 2003 to 2005.
