Rob Rang Big Board (Texans at 16) 1-8-15
This isn't a mock draft, this is just a big board for a generic team looking to add in the draft. I'm doing this so you can get an idea of what options the Texans may have at the 16th pick.
http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/s...stock-in-bowls To be fair, we need to start at #18 because two players listed may get dropped significantly because of off-field issues: QB Jamais Winston of Florida St. and WR Dorial Green-Beckham of Oklahoma via Missouri. Both, IMO, are far too risky to use a first-rounder on. So, looking at picks 18-22, here's what our options may look like: Quote:

If it were me I'd draft Famous Jamais in a heartbeat given the chance, but I doubt Mcnair would, so what I would or wouln't do means nothing. Now what would O'Brien do and just how much influenece does he havewith the Texans owner ?

There are guys in the top 16 or so that will drop, too. Quite a few Washington players on this list, too.
Using Rang's list, guys who I think might be there who could fit what the Texans are looking for include: DT Danny Shelton, Wash CB Trae Waynes, Mich St OLB Shaq Thompson, Wash OT Cedric Ogbuehi, Tx A&M CB P.J. Williams, Fl St I also wouldn't be surprised to see the Texans trade down and take the top ILB or TE on the board in this draft. CJF, even if he pans out, needs a buddy there. Maxx Williams (Minn), anyone? If they pass on a TE early, there is a big one from Penn State (Jesse James) that wouldn't be a surprise to me if he ends up in Houston. |

Updated on 1-23 after Senior Bowl, started a few above 16 as this will stay fluid till draft happens.
I personally right now leening towards defense and dbacks in first two rounds. 12. Landon Collins, SS, 6-0, 215, Jr., Alabama: Instinctive, athletic and an explosive hitter, Collins looks the part of a top-10 pick. His downhill playing style might be best suited to strong safety 13. Danny Shelton, DT, 6-2, 323, Sr., Washington: Broad-shouldered, powerful and surprisingly passionate in pursuit, Shelton is a classic two-gap run defender 14. La'el Collins, OT, 6-5, 315, Sr., LSU: Collins doesn't get the national attention of other tackles in this class, but the big man is surprisingly agile 15. Kevin White, WR, 6-3, 209, Sr., West Virginia: No player improved his draft stock more in 2014 than White. It wasn't just his production (110 catches, 1,447 yards, 10 touchdowns) 16. Trae Waynes, CB, 6-1, 183, rJr., Michigan State: Waynes has the length, fluidity and ball skills required of cornerbacks in today's pass-happy NFL and is more stout against the run than his frame implies. 17. Shaq Thompson, OLB, 6-2, 231, Jr., Washington: Boasting terrific athleticism, instincts and awareness, |
