A lot of people are unhappy that the Texans did not draft an ILB. Some of them are disappointed with the idea that Brooks Reed may be moving to ILB. Clearly the Texans will sign a couple of vet ILB and let them compete.
However, what if the Texans did find their ILB in the draft...or more accurately as an UDFA?
Now as I say this you may be saying, Ok, Dopp, which one of
Ja'Gared Davis, Kenny Demens, LB, Evan Frierson or, Justin Tuggle are you referring?
What would you say if I told you I was referring to Zac Boren? But Dopp, you might say, he is a FB. True, but he also played very well as a LB for the last 6 games. In 6 games he racked up 50 tackles and averaged 8.2 tackles per game. His best game was 12 tackle effort and 7 solo tackles in an overtime game against Wisconsin. His best game may have been against Michigan where he picked up 9 tackles along with a sack on Denard Robinson.
He may not be the starter right out of the gate, but I could see him becoming that starter next to Cush down the road.
