Our Texans have many holes that need to be filled. These include S,OL,DL,QB,and RB. However, I only see filling 2 of those wholes that will give us immediate improvement. That is OL and RB. Drafting a RB in the first will give us an offensive threat, something we don't have much of, and take the pressure off of Carr and the line during passing downs. Drafting the OL will give Carr more time to throw and open more holes.
My position...RB. Defensive talent is deep this draft and FA and can be had at later rounds. I would feel terrible about us throwing another rookie QB behind our line, besides, QB is a little thin this year, and Brohm and Brennan are coming out next year. While the OL can open holes for runners, we don't have a consistant(performance or health) threat at RB. However, a good RB(Peterson/Lynch) will make plays happen. If we are fortunate enough to have AD fall to us, we MUST take him. If not, we can trade down a few spots, and maybe even reach if no trades are available, for Lynch. Just my 2 cents.
