2017 Undervalued Prospects

[gs27]

Below is a list of guys I will be paying a lot of attention to for the upcoming 2016 season who I feel are currently undervalued and will move up boards during the season or be draft bargains come next April. Positions listed are what I would project them playing for the Texans, not necessarily where they play currently.


Anthony Walker – ILB – Northwestern #18 – 6’-2”, 235 lbs

Zach Cunningham – ILB – Vanderbilt #41 – 6’-4”, 230 lbs

Sam Hubbard – OLB – Ohio State #6 – 6’-5”, 266 lbs

Deatrich Wise Jr – DE – Arkansas #48 – 6’-5”, 271 lbs

Jake Replogle – DE – Purdue #54 – 6’-5”, 289 lbs

Quin Blanding – S – Virginia #3 – 6’-2”, 205 lbs

Nate Gerry – S - Nebraska #25 – 6’-2”, 220 lbs

Sidney Jones – CB – Washington #26 – 6’-1”, 180 lbs

Demetrius Cox – CB/S – Michigan St #7 – 6’-1”, 197 lbs

Jonah Pirsig – OT – Minnesota #79 – 6’-9”, 325 lbs

Cole Colston – OT – Iowa #64 – 6’-5”, 295 lbs

Pat Elfein – OG/C – Ohio St #65 – 6’-3”, 300 lbs

Bolded are in my focus group with Demetrius Cox, Cunningham and Persig looking really good.

I really like Replogle.

Hood is the forgotten man in an elite RB class. He's a stud.

Butt is awesome. Needs to become a better blocker though.

I'll add Bucky Hodges - TE, Virginia Tech. A lot of people know him but I don't think many have an idea of how incredibly high his ceiling is.

Jake Butt – TE – Michigan #88 – 6’-5”, 250 lbs

I thought Butt was really highly rated and many were hoping he would come out this year

He is definitely the highest rated on my list. Most mocks have him going in 2nd round and rated as the 2nd TE after Howard. The guy has huge catch radius and catches everything. If we end up with a later 1st he could be a target. I think he is best TE prospect in recent years so I consider him undervalued, definitely not a sleeper however.

Wise and Hubbard are rated fairly high also. Hubbard is a freak, better than Bosa and perfect SOLB prospect. Played safety in high school.
