Five Players that the Texans could draft at Pick 67

 Hello Texans fans this will be my last article on this blog. I would like to thank everyone who took the time to read these articles. Without further adieu let's get into this article .

1. Ifeatu Melifonwu CB Syracuse

If the draft started today this would be my pick if I was the GM of the Texans. Melifonwu has everything the Texans are looking for in a CB. He's tall, fast and physical and a good tackler. He aligns with what Lovie Smith wants in his CB's. 


2. Payton Turner EDGE Houston

One of my favorite draft prosepcts this year is Payton Turner. Turner has great length, power and motor at the EDGE position. He could stay at home and one day become Houston's next great all time edge rusher.


3. Nico Collins WR Michigan

After the loss of Will Fuller this off-season the Texans really could use some help at the WR position. Collins is a big, fast athletic receiver who could become a QB's best friend. Collins would fit nicely with the current Texans WR group.


4. Pat Freiermuth TE Penn State

The Texans haven't had a stable presence at the TE position since the days of Owen Daniels. Freirmuth reminds me a lot of Daniels and much more in that he has great size, route running and hands. He could be the new safety blanket for the Texans next QB.


5. Jabril Cox LB LSU

Under Lovie Smith you can see the new types of LB's being bought in to fit the scheme. Cox would be a great fit in this defense as he is a great coverage LB which are hard to come by. Cox would give the Texans that chess piece they've always wanted on defense.

Texans Mock Draft 1.0

Hello and welcome my fellow Houston Texans fans, these past few years have been quite the rollercoaster ride with the departure of many beloved Texans like DeAndre Hopkins and JJ Watt. The Texans star quarterback Deshaun Watson is also very disgruntled with the franchise and has asked for a trade. New GM Nick Caserio has his work cut out for him this offseason. One of the main events of the offseason is the NFL draft and although the Texans don't have a 1st or a 2nd round pick due to the Laremy Tunsil trade there is still a lot of great gems in this draft class. Below I have put together a mock draft for each pick the Texans have. Round 3 : Pick 67 Ifeatu Melifonwu  CB, Syracuse The Texans have a huge need at corner as they were torched badly last year in the secondary. Add in Melifonwu who is a  long, rangy, athletic, and physical corner that is a great fit for new defensive coordinator's Lovie Smith's Tampa 2 defense. Round 4 : Pick 109 Patrick Jones II EDGE, Pittsburgh W...

Lawsuits Surrounding Deshaun Watson

Hello Texans fans I am sure many of you all have heard about the lawsuits against Texans star QB Deshaun Watson. It's surprising to hear Watson's name being brought up in something other than trade rumors. In the 16 or so filed lawsuits , Deshaun Watson is accused of allegedly sexually assaulting women who he contacted for a massage.  Houston Lawyer Tony Buzbee who is representing the defendants has said that he has some strong evidence regarding the situation. Representing , Watson is also another prominent Houston lawyer in Rusty Hardin.  This situation currently monitors a lot of time and close eyes. There is no telling what may occur. In the situation, Watson is found guilty there would be quite the reaction by the media. He may never play football again and in turn may ruin his career. These are some very serious allegations and it is important to wait and see what unfolds.

Examining the Texans Depth Chart on Offense Post Free Agency

Hello Texans fans today we will be taking a look at the Texans depth chart on offense following free agency.   QB - Deshaun Watson , Tyrod Taylor , Ryan Finley There are quite a lot of questions surrounding the Texans at the quarterback position in regard to the Deshaun Watson trade rumors and sexual misconduct lawsuits. The Texans were wise to bring in Tyrod Taylor who is a strong leader and fierce competitor and will most likely start for the Texans this year. Ryan Finley is also someone who has great traits and is a fine backup.   RB - David Johnson, Mark Ingram, Phillip Lindsay, Buddy Howell, Dontrell Hilliard, Scottie Phillips The Texans had quite the overhaul here bringing in Ingram and Lindsay who should help this stagnant run game. David Johnson also returns and showed some promise towards the end of the season. Howell, Hilliard, and Phillips should compete for a special teams’ spot or on the practice squad.   WR - Brandin Cooks , Randall Cobb , Keke Coutee, Isaia...
