    Need more speed at running back, tight end and receiver. Going to be tough to address all in one draft considering they need three offensive lineman too.

    I was really hoping theyd round out the RB room by grabbing Sean Tucker but then Tampa Bay backtracked and extended him. Alas...

    I could definitely be down with another OL or 2 to add to the room. Probably depth. Otherwise I am looking at the draft for any real improvement from here.

    I see lots of smoke about Wyatt Teller, but I would prefer Chris Paul or Jamaree Sayler.

    Younger
    More upside
    Might be cheaper

    I think both fit gap scheme.

    just my $.02

    I'm still disgusted they didn't offer Mays more than Detroit. We needed a young good center more than a safety to boost our OLine, help our running game, and give CJ a chance to be better. :mad:

    Moreau is the first TE Houston has had in a long time that can legitimately hold their own in pass protection or run game vs edge rushers.

    In 63 PBLK opportunity in 2022 he allowed 0 pressures.

    FWIW, PFF rated Jake Andrews as the 26th best center (61.6 overall, 67.2 Pass Block and 59.5 Run Block) and Cade Mays as the 24th best (62.4 overall, 69.4 Pass Block, and 58.4 Run Block)

    Even though Cade Mays is the more established player, it's perfectly plausible that the Texans don't view Cade Mayes as an upgrade worth taking a cap hit. Moreover, Jake Andrews was playing much of the season injured, so he might improve next year. It's not unreasonable for them to view Jake Andrews good enough for the short term to bridge us to the next center.

    It is unfortunate there is only one top tier center this free agency, and the rest are 3rd tier and below. If they don't sign a center, I'm fairly certain they will try to pick up one of the better ones in this draft.
