I am with you on keeping what we have at Qb. I could even see us trying to move up in round 1 for a young Qb prospect but to me there is no need for that. I am sure a solid prospect could be had in rounds three and four in the draft. Let that young player spend at least two seasons on our squad to soak in the offensive system. Let the other three battle for a spot on the team and for depth chart purposes. If this seasons Qb draft pick looks terribly lost or does not seem to be learning enough we should let him go.Bringing Fitzpatrick in to be our starter after being releases from his contract with the Titans already smells of the Texans thinking they're the smartest guys in the room.
Signing Hoyer to more money than Fitz after the QB needy Browns figured they were better without him... & subsequently releasing Fitzpatrick, carries a stronger "smartest guy in the room" stench.
Going all in on Osweiler after 7 games reeks of "smartest guy in the room"
Now is the time for the Texans to lie in the bed they've made. Make the best of the QBs they have, move forward accumulating draft picks until a true #1 overall prospect shows up, then trade those assets to get the next Phillip Rivers, Peyton Manning, Matt Stafford, Andrew Luck.
If they feel good about a Tj Yates, Tom Savage, Case Keenum... fine. But we need to take a shot at the top of the draft in the next two or three years. That includes this year. If they feel good about Watson & want to go get him, I'm fine with that. Trubisky, Mahomes whatever.
But bringing in Cutler is the same mistake we've made with Fitz & Hoyer.
None the less, whatever may be, aside from having a season where our Qb starter excels and we win atleast 11 games , we should draft a Qb in every draft. If things look as bad as they did at Qb the last three seasons we for sure should try to move up in a draft for a Qb.
As of now, I think we should stay with the status quo at Qb and draft a young Qb somewhere from round 3 to round 4.
