Draft a whole starting line-up....

kiwitexansfan

Hall of Fame
So I was mock draft simulating, as you do, when I got an offer to trade down with New Orleans for their 1st, 2nd and then the next 2 years 1sts.

I take it, because, why not?

I then decide I will try and stockpile mid rounders so accept every trade that gets me 4ths and 5ths. I get enough to think I can actually draft a whole starting line-up.

So I present to you, your 2014 Houston Texans....

I did one of these a few weeks ago, took every trade down offer possible and wound up with 90+ picks all in the 5th, 6th, and 7th rounds. I was picking lots of guys in the 7th round I've never heard of.

Your right there is excellent depth in this draft. There will be some very good prospects taken in the 5th and 6th rounds.
