Texans own rights to #1 overall selection because of hard earned ineptitude this season both on & off the field. Stay tuned. But as of now this is where we are.

with the first overall selection in the 2014 NFL Draft the Houston Texans Select

1st. Teddy Bridgwater, QB, Louisville, 6030 220

The most sure fire franchise QB in this draft.

2nd. Antonio Richardson, OT, Tennessee, 6060 332

First round talent who can assimilate RT as well as pass rushers.

3rd. DaQuan Jones, NT, Penn State, 6030 333

Dominant inside force, could replace or rotate w/Mitchell depending on free agency.

4th. Greg Blair, ILB, Cincinnati, 6010 251

Upgrade over Sharpton, immediate help inside to relieve pressure off Cushing.

5th. Tyler Gaffney, RB, Stanford, 6010 226

Very good blocker, good possession back, polished & smart.

6th. CJ Barnett, FS, Ohio State, 6000 203

Depth, can play either safety positions, big wingspan & special team talent infusion.

7th. Solomon Patton, WR/Retuner, Florida, 5090 171

Burner to return kickoffs can also stretch the field as WR adds depth/talent to special teams. Imagine slightly bigger version of Trindon Holliday. He once ran the 40-yard dash in 4.27 seconds. Another time, Patton defeated Pro Bowl wide receiver Julio Jones of the Atlanta Falcons in a 100-meter high school track race. When I think of Florida Football I think of athletic freaks, & Patton fits the mold.

really like this draft.
Im not to in love with bridgewater as some but i understand the pick.

you address and prioritise the trenches and ILB which for me is the real concern for this team, like this a lot!

gaffney is a 'back that i would like us to have with the loss of tate. foster and johnson offer something and gaffney offers that bigger bodied back that this team will need.

last 2 picks help out special teams which is a must for this team.

By only disagreement is no TE (which is probably getting old for other posters as i keep beating this dead horse lol) and instead of a Safety i would like a CB. Harris and Mccain are terrible and Jjo is not playing to his contract also Kjax will be an upcoming free agent next year. We have 2 young safeties who are playing decent (really like the development of Keo) and manning hopefully comes back, i don't think we need another young safety ... but this is just my opinion.

Overall excellent mock and very similar to something i would do in my future one

Dont like Bridgewater at 1-1.

Otherwise I like the picks.

Patton and Gaffney represent great value at the spots they were picked. Dont know if Richardson will be there at 2-1.

I'd be okay with Bridgewater but really hope a trade down. I think Matthews is more of a guarantee than any QB but getting Richardson is solid and I like the combination of 1 & 2. Not a fan of DaQuan, would you consider Shelton or Carrethers?

Your thoughts on Barnett falling so far? He is pretty much rated late third to 4th round.

Happy Thanksgiving gang :ant: glad you enjoyed this latest edition!

Bridgewater has the highest ceiling @ the most coveted position, QB, so really Texans cannot afford to miss a possible kill for a franchise that has suffered immeasurably because of horrific QB performance since inception. Not too worried about which OT just that after taking a franchise QB they get him best possible protection with next pick. Time to address nose tackle, cannot continue to be soft up the middle, hence also adding beefy ILB w/next pick (really not sure he lasts though). After Tate leaves & Foster coming off IR how can anyone justify not addressing RB in the draft? Manning coming off IR is also a concern, cannot go forward with just Swearinger/Keo duo. would like to address earlier but QB his protection, someone to block & carry the rock as well improve the middle of Texan defense too important to bypass. Backend help in secondary as well as a dynamic kick returner would really shore up some obvious weak areas on this team.

If Texans have a higher grade on Barnett than Gaffney I would have no problem flipping them. Gaffney will be gone somewhere in 5th or earlier so look for next best fundamentally sound football player same position. Has anyone seen this Jordan Lynch, Northern Illinois play? He is such a solid kid, I think he could stick on an NFL roster @ RB. He is 4th in the nation running, averaging 146.25 yards per game on 7.08 yards per carry. He could also be emergency QB, so Texans would only have to carry two Keenum/Bridgewater on roster. He is 6000 215.

One of if not the best mock Ive seen thus far.


The one thing I would change is ....


The closest thing to a sure fire franchise QB in this draft.
Click to expand...
Im just not sold on ANY of these QB's being able to carry a team in the NFL - True "Franchise" quarterbacks .... If there is one , its likely Bridgewater or Manziel but the latter comes with too much risk.

I like the mock. I'm still amused at the people who aren't buying into the biggest whole a team can have. Even if you're a skeptic on bridgewater, just watch his throws,pocket presence,and poise. I mean,there isn't anything that says he can't or won't be a franchise qb. Could he be a bust? Sure,but so could any of the top prospects. Jake matthews won't have a higher grade than jockel and how did he play as a rookie? I mean, we're talking 21 yr old kids. It took luck all of 1 yr to be the best qb in the division and its not like he's playing well. When was the last time schaub or any other texans qb beat teams the caliber of sea,49ers,and broncos?

Love the double standard. Luck is winning games single handedly even if his come from behind wins are due to throwing picks but Schaub didn't beat the Broncos, Ravens or Colts last year throwing 7 TDs and 1 INT.

To me Luck is the guy who bats 265 but has 35 homers and gets the timely hits . Nobody remembers him striking out in the 3rd inning because it doesn't matter if you win .

I've gone from bridgewater clowney to bridgewater Barr.

I think if we get the first pick we should go bridgewater. If we get a lower pick and bridgewater is gone, I'd go Barr easily.

Not a johnny manziel fan.

Don't know a lot about all the players you picked, but I'm a fan of bridgewater to the Texans.

QB is the biggest component for a perennial contender . If you have a chance to get one you have to take it . Even if it's 50/50 that he's a bust , what's the odds of getting Tom Brady in the 6th round or Kurt Warner out of the NFL Europe ?

Like the draft, but...

(there's always a "but", isn't there?)

With Mercilus rated 32nd/42 3-4 OLBs by PFF and Brooks Reeds solidly dead last 42nd/42 3-4 OLBs(>25% snaps)... and on pass rush grade alone Mercilus drops to 39th/42 and Reed stays 42nd/42...

I think OLB must be addressed early.

Well how did he play? He played right tackle (as we expect Matthews to do) for September then moved to LT when Monroe was traded. Joeckel played one game then ended season next game injuring ankle. Not much to evaluate, right?

I understand that Bridgewater is #1 on most media draft boards. However I am not convinced that will be the case with most NFL draft boards.

If Richardson is truly 1st RD talent which I agree and think he is also, he will be drafted in the 1st RD. Particularly true for a LT. Wishin and Hopin?

Always amazed why people think 340 lb fat man NT will be better than a 300 lb athletic DT. As long as Wade is DC and runs a 1 gap penetrating DT defense I don't think the Texans will ever draft a BIG 2 gap NT. That would be wasted draft pick regardless of how many fans think BIG is BETTER.

Lets just go down the same path as the Texans did with Carr. I swear, sometimes people never learn. BL addresses the OL in this mock but I doubt a guy like Richardson is going to fall to the 2nd rd. With that said, I would be all over Richardson in the 2nd regardless of who is taken in the 1st.

Understood. However the stamina and game situations only allow for those BIG guys to be on the field for about 30% of D snaps. The game is transitioning to more of passing league so that means even less play for BIG 2 gap NTs. And as long as Wade wants 1 GAP penetrating DTs, BIG 2 GAP NTs will NOT be part of the equation regardless of how much the Girth lovers and believers want it to be so.

I think Bum was talking about Earl when he said that. 340 lb. Fat Guys don't do a lot of running, their value is standing their ground.

You evidently have not followed him or read here on MB but many think he is a "system" QB in that his RB, WRs and O line are so good he does not have to win games on his own. We have two of those three + D.Brown and a very good ZBS center in Myers. Most fans agree with me that Brooks will be a very solid starter at RG and Quessenberry will start LG unless we draft a better option.

I have posted if McCarron and Bridgewater were the only two choices, I'd go the latter. But if I can get a starting OT say Matthews, Lewan, Kouandijo or
Antonio Richardson in first, a starting DE in second to replace A.Smith (Kony Ealy) and then McCarron in third, why not?

I am also ok with Bridgewater, A. Richardson (#33) and a NT in third as Beerlover has mocked. Preferably, I'd trade out of top three and get much more to use.

The Texans already have a system QB and it's not good enough . They need a guy who can make plays when it counts .

Quiz is gone if the go away from the ZBS so they need another guard just like they need a RT . I also think that you have a better chance that the Right tackle is on the roster with Williams but there is no guard prospect . Having said that , if Richardson was there in the 2nd I'd take him . Heck ... I might take Gabe Jackson in the 2nd to paid with Brooks . No more getting stugffed at the 2yd line .

Nah, Quiz is over 300 lbs and can move. A very valuable swing OL at the very least. Hopefully Quiz has spent this season getting stronger and putting on 10-15 lbs of muscle. With the Texans S&C staff I've got my doubts.

I know the Texans have alot of holes. But wouldn't it be great if the Texans after trading down were able to draft Richardson and Richardson in rds 1-2 and use the extra picks to fix the defense. Draft McCarron/Murray in rds 3-5 and have an Olieresque OL (Munchack/Matthews) in front of the young QB. After seeing the Texans OL implode this yr, I think drafting this way is the fastest way to become a playoff contender again.

It worked for the Oilers and will work for the Texans. I just dont want to see the Texans repeat past mistakes. (Carr)

If the coach or OC is calling right play, his QB should be able to make it work.

The fact that you think Rick is deserving of keeping his job either means

1. You dont watch much Texans football.
2. You're a Rick only fan
3. You believe Rick has nothing to do with the current state of the Texans on the feild product. Even though He's a GM of one of the most successful franchises in the NFL $$$$ wise. (You're kidding yourself)

"Quessenberry (6-5, 307) is one of those talented guys. A versatile player, he has taken reps at nearly every position on the o-line (other than center) and can offer depth at both guard and tackle, the position he played in college." "I have played a couple of different positions and that has helped me understand these concepts of the offense and now I am pretty much locked into guard. I feel really comfortable out there."

I agree he fits ZBS well but think with experience he can drive opponents. He is more of a tactitian similar perhaps to a Bruce Matthews who did well for a few years (19 & 14 pro bowls) at same size. He did okay in blocking in running game for somebody named Campbell.
