Mock a starting offense

This thread is pretty straight forward. The Texans have 11 picks in this draft, so draft a starting offense. Doesn't necessarily have to be what the Texans are going to run this year because we really don't know. I drafted with the notion of a one-back offense that uses 2 TE's, with one of the TE's being a move TE who plays FB, TE, and WR.


1 (#1) WR - Sammy Watkins, Clemson
2 (#33) OT - Antonio Richardson, Tennessee
3 (#65) TE - C.J. Fiedorowicz, Iowa
4 (#101) QB - Aaron Murray, Georgia

6 (#177) RB - Storm Johnson, UCF
6 (#181) OG - Wesley Johnson, Vanderbilt
6 (#211) WR - Devin Street, Pittsburgh
7 (#216) OT - Charles Siddoway, Mississippi State

Other than siddoway, who I know nothing about, I would be pumped for this draft. :aggressive:
 
Round 1 Pick 1: Teddy Bridgewater, QB, Louisville (A)
Round 2 Pick 1: Morgan Moses, OT, Virginia (B)
Round 3 Pick 1: Jordan Matthews, WR, Vanderbilt (A-)
Round 4 Pick 1: Joel Bitonio, OT, Nevada (C+)

Round 6 Pick 35 (COMP): Trey Burton, WR, Florida (F)
Round 7 Pick 1: Wesley Johnson, OT, Vanderbilt (F)
Round 7 Pick 41 (COMP): Austin Wentworth, OG, Fresno State (D)

Went with a pass-oriented offense that could move the chains. O-linemen are all good pass blockers. Grice is an outstanding receiver out of the backfield. Very fortunate to come up with the players at 3-1 and 4-1.

WR - Norwood
HB - Burton
LT - Moses
LG - Wentworth
C- Ikard
RG - Johnson
RT - Bitonio
TE - Jensen
WR - Matthews
QB - Bridgewater
RB - Grice

Went with the O-Line and running game here, and a game manager at QB

Really like this draft. Build an NFL quality line then add some NFL level athletes, bingo.

Starting 3 QBs? Going back to the triple wing?
 
I did one using CBS player rankings, I thought it to be more realistic.

1. Sammy Watkins-WR
2. Morgan Moses-OT
3. Jimmy Garoppolo-QB
4. JaWaun James-OT
4b. Brandon Linder-OG
5. Storm Johnson-RB
6. Gabe Ikard-C
6b. Jeff Janis-WR
6c. Jalen Saunders-WR
7. Marcel Jensen-TE
7b. Spencer Long-OG

I like this one the best. Stud at LT and a solid guy at RT. Two shots at finding a capable QB. Nice targets for them to throw to. And a pretty decent RB.
Yeah, this would be sweet.

OTOH, RAC would be pisssed. LOL

You going with some new offensive scheme that I've never heard of? You've only got 4 O-linemen in your draft, but show Long in your O-line starting unit. Also no way TB lasts to the 2nd round.
