    Bullock’s solid. Not spectacular, but tall and long and pretty solid in pass coverage. Not a bad pick. Needs to get bigger and improve his tackling. Also gambles a lot so needs to cut back on that.

    Not mad at the player, feel like coulda waited.
    If they were for sure going safety and corner, shoulda traded up for DeJean

    Pre-Draft Analysis
    Bullock is a safety with the range and length to play center field. He closes well, breaking on balls in off coverage. Matching up with tight ends, he is competitive. Bullock, a playmaker who flashes the ability to pluck the ball out of the air, picked off five passes in 2022. He's competitive at the catch point. While his angles are inconsistent and he misses tackles, he is an aggressive run-defender who flashes good stopping power for a leaner safety. -- Steve Muench

    Post-Draft Analysis
    My top safety in the draft comes off the board at pick No. 78 overall. Ranked No. 55 on my final big board, Bullock is a ballhawk from the center of the field. The Texans are committed to improving the secondary after drafting Kamari Lassiter in Round 2, and Bullock should slot in as the team's starting free safety. That move would allow Jimmie Ward to play where he's the best -- in the nickel -- giving the Texans a potentially dangerous starting five in the defensive backfield. -- Matt Miller

    Seems anyone who isn’t mainstream in their ideological ideas is called that nowadays.

    Sounds like a solid pick at a position of need.

    Pretty underwhelming draft in my opinion. Have to trust their body of work but not much to be excited about thus far.

    Excitement doesn't win championships. Solid consistency does
