There is still a good amount of talent out there at places of need. We should be getting them and drafting for depth not drafting to start..
I think Allen Hurns would be a big addition.. Deshaun needs all the weapons he can get.. Texans have the money they need to make a couple of more moves
QB: Brett Hundley for 2018 6th Round RB: Adrian Peterson Veteran Minimum RB: Best Available 3rd Round TE: Martellus Bennett Veteran Minimum TE: Best Available 3rd Round OT: Cameron Fleming $4M OT: Best Available 2nd Round (Move up) DT: Ndamukong Suh $15M LB: Best Available 3rd Round CB: Best Available 4th Round CB: Cut Kareem Jackson Save $6M CB: E.J. Gaines $5-9M Does this work in their cap space? Texans need to roll the dice this season. What point is there to save the money now? I hope it isn't to spend on subpar players who get cut during preseason who then the Texans will cut later!? Will any player cut in preseason be better than Suh or Bennett? I doubt it. Offer 1-2 year deals for flexibility next year.
http://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2017/i...-class-all-32-nfl-teams-grades-picks-analysis Houston Texans Post-draft grade: C+ Let's get this out of the way: I've been accused of hating Deshaun Watson. That's just not true. In reality, I ranked him as my No. 3 quarterback in a class that wasn't very deep. I had him No. 34 on my Big Board, which put him at the top of the second round. I liked him, but I thought he had some flaws. Houston obviously thought a lot of him, moving up 13 spots and giving up its first-rounder in 2018. What happened next? After a rocky first half from Tom Savage in Week 1, Watson starred, throwing 19 touchdown passes in only six starts. As I noted with regard to my All-Rookie team, that's more passing TDs than Joe Flacco, Tyrod Taylor and Marcus Mariota had all season. Bill O'Brien did a fantastic job of tailoring the offense to Watson's strengths -- more movement passes, more run-pass options -- and the Texans were legitimately fun to watch. Then it all came crashing down when Watson tore his ACL in practice in early November. Houston went 1-8 afterward. And those 2018 picks it dealt to Cleveland to get Watson (and get rid of Brock Osweiler) ended up being extremely valuable -- Nos. 4 and 35 overall. Now, I suspect the Texans' front office would make those moves again in a heartbeat. Watson could be a superstar (though two ACL injuries is a concern), and finding a superstar at quarterback can change the direction of a franchise. Even after a 4-12 season, this team is headed in the right direction -- assuming Watson returns healthy. Houston also got production out of linebacker Zach Cunningham (82 tackles, 1.5 sacks, 1 forced fumble) and running back D'Onta Foreman (two touchdowns before tearing his Achilles in November). Day 3 picks Julien Davenport, Carlos Watkins and Kyle Fuller all started games too, while undrafted free agent Dylan Cole had 32 total tackles and two interceptions in part-time duty. So that's a lot of production from rookies, but it's not quite an A because of what it gave up in 2018.

haha Texans were supposedly interested ( but i doubt they offer the amount of money he is looking for) Texans are not paying much for anybody
Agreed, otherwise any throw farther than 20 yards that might get caught just tackle the guy. Kinda like fouling an open layup/dunk
