This is a concern for every single player and most definitely every quarterback. Watson sustained an injury to his lungs after getting blasted by one of the Cowboys LB’s.I wish I had your optimism!
Seriously, tho', I completely get the hype around Young. I wish we had a franchise that I believed could develop him. But this franchise will David Carr the kid. I know it in my soul.
Here's the rub from a recent scouting report:
The only major negative we can find to Young is his susceptibility to injury, and while playing behind an elite (for the most part) Tide offensive line he's been able to stay on the field - behind a subpar basement-dwelling pro line things could turn bad, quickly. This is a potentially serious issue - any team that drafts him will need to have the team to keep him upright.
The bolded is exactly my concerns. This franchise is not the one to act like they will surround him with what he needs to succeed.
I'll root for the kid if he's their pick. Once he's a Texan, then it's all aboard. So these are just thoughts pre-draft. My confidence in the Texans is at an all time low, so I'll be the first to admit that my perspectives are biased and extremely pessimistic.
