I've been thinking about the Texans and their general tendency under Kubiak of playing not to lose. I think we're all mostly on the same page that Kubiak tended to call games that way.
In the draft, there seem to be prospects that could be viewed as selections made to win, and selections made not to lose.
For instance, I'm not a JFF fan by any means, although I have warmed up to him a bit recently, but I think selecting JFF could be viewed as drafting to win. OTOH, drafting Bridgewater might be viewed as drafting not to lose.
Besides JFF, I think Clowney is also a draft to win type of prospect.
I thought I'd throw this out there for discussion of the concept in general, and also for y'all to tell us which players you think fit in a particular category.
