I would think about things in these terms. The Colts are going to draft Luck. At the very least they'll have the opportunity to if they want it. And they probably will. There are exceptionally few players like Peyton Manning who can singlehandedly have such a profound effect on a team's play. Maybe Luck will be one of those guys but I doubt it. That doesn't mean he won't be very, very good for a long time.
Either way, the Texans have an enviable young core of defenders to contend with Luck over the next six, eight, ten years: Watt, Barwin, Reed, Cushing.
I would ask myself what does the team need to complete a nucleus of defensive players that will keep the team in playoff contention every year. As always the team would benefit from a good defensive secondary addition.
