2011?

Currently based on the current standings, I have the Texans picking #14, and judging from the play I have been seeing that is close to where I think they pick. I am thinking 12th, but could be between 10th and 20th.

So based on the 14th pick, I see a coaching change and a move back to the 3-4. Say goodbye to Okoye, Daniel, Jones, and Turk.

I want us to sign two of the following FA NTs: Paul Soliai, Dolphins, Shaun Rogers, Browns, Alan Branch, Cards, Chris Hoke, Steelers.

The draft is as follows:

12 Brandon Harris CB Miami 5'11 195
44 Sione Fua NT Stanford 6'2" 307
76 Jeron Johnson S Boise State 5' 11" 194
108 Steven Friday OLB Virginia Tech 6'4" 254 .
140 Wayne Daniels OLB TCU 6' 2" 250
172 Kai Forbath K UCLA 6'0" 192
204 Derek Epperson P Baylor 6'3" 235


My 3-4 looks like this;
LDE - Williams,
NT - Soliai,Hoke,Fua
RDE - Smith, Mitchell
LOLB- Cushing, Friday
LILB - Diles
RILB - Ryans, Sharpton
ROLB - Barwin, Daniels
CB - Harris, Jackson, McManis
S - Quinn, Nolan, Pollard, Johnson

Fill the holes with vets that fit the new coaches schemes.

14 Rahim Moore* S UCLA 6' 1" 195
46 Christian Ballard DT Iowa 6' 5" 297
78 Joe Lefeged CB Rutgers 6' 1" 205
110 Colin McCarthy OLB Miami 6' 3" 240
142 Shaky Smithson WR Utah 5' 11" 202
174 Byron Isom OG Auburn 6' 3" 302
206 Dan Bailey K Oklahoma State 6' 0" 197

Not a bad start.

What do I see if Kubiak-Smith are in charge of the draft?

14 Akeem Ayers* OLB UCLA 6' 4" 254
46 Sam Acho DE Texas 6' 3" 258
78 Roy Helu Jr. RB Nebraska 6' 0" 215
110 Chykie Brown CB Texas 6' 0" 190
142 Ollie Ogbu DT Penn State 6' 1" 285
174 Tejay Johnson S TCU 6' 1" 210
206 Virgil Greene TE Nevada 6' 4" 242

They ignore the areas of need to go with guys to strengthen the pass rush early, then they draft guys who do not have ball skills (Brown ) or do not have a chance of getting on the field (Helu)(I like Helu but we do not appear to need a RB), and of course a great TE to not be activated is a need for 5 years from now.

What I hope a new coaching staff would do
14 Brandon Harris*, CB, Miami 5-11 195
46 Jerrell Powe DT Mississippi 6' 2" 330
78 Jaiquawn Jarrett S Temple 6' 2" 195
110 Sione Fua DT Stanford 6' 2" 307
142 Stefen Wisniewski OG Penn State 6' 3" 297
174 Kai Forbath, K, UCLA 6-0 182
206 Ryan Donahue PT Iowa 6' 3" 180
