Thank god we got Watt locked up early. That contract could have been devastating to the rest of the franchise.

I like that we aren't banking on rookies to come in and immediately contribute. Sign these veteran OL guys.
Would still love a RB like Kenyan Drake and a QB like Kevin Hogan in the draft but I know it probably won't happen.

Top 10 in percentage. Top 10 in Y/A. Top 5 in Rating. 6-4 218 lbs, played in a pro-style offense, and only two losses all year. Only things going against him are that he had an all american RB to help him so they didn't have to depend on him as much and he has an awkward throwing motion.
I just didn't see anything special from him. Christian McCaffrey was the team and the offense from David Shaw seemed to suit him too much. Idk if he translates all to well to the NFL game. 6th or 7th rd pick or even undrafted prolly.
If I were betting on Stanford guy most likely to be drafted by the Texans, I'd put money on Austin Hooper
