I think Texans will trade up if they see a guard prospect they think can maul in the run game. Use the second rounder on the BPA between another guard, DL/Edge/TE/OL. This team isn’t signing Linderbaum with the way Caserio operates and the fact they are about to pay Will top tier money. CJ is probably next up if he has a good season. I think Ingram resigning is a must as well. If you take two guards make one your center and solidify the line.
1.28 Vega Ioane OG, Penn State - Starter at LG 2.38 Christen Miller, DT, Grorgia - Autry replacement 2.59 Jake Golday - LB, Cincinnati - Do it all LB and eventually Al-Shaair replacement 3.69 Max Iheanachor - OT, Arizona State - Future RT 4.106 Caden Curry - Edge, Ohio State - Replacement for D. Taylor who will actually play 4.118 Logan Jones, OC, Iowa - Future center 5.165 Aamil Wagner OT, Notre Dame - Needs a year in strength and conditioning to see what's there. Quick and long. 7.243 Kendall Daniels - LB, Oklahoma - Coverage LB 7.244 Dean Connors - RB, Houston - RB depth and local to boot In free agency I want to sign Tyler Allgeier (RB/Atl) and Charlie Kolar (TE/Baltimore). I think both guys could really improve the run game without breaking the bank.
I know Vega Ioane out of Penn State is a favorite 1st round pick with a lot of early mock draft projections. Vega is really heavy footed and lacks the agility for a guard in the 1st round. Vega's draft rankings are going to drop after the combine when scouts have finished analyzing his tape and watch him go through drills alongside his peers.
That's what the combine is for... I rarely make up my mind without game tape and the combine #'s to back it up. Should have saved us from drafting Kenyon Green.
The two offensive lineman from the University of Iowa would be great gets in this years draft. You draft your Guard Gennings Dunker in the 1st round and then go select the Center Logan Jones in the 3rd.
Check out Dallen Bentley. He's someone that could be there in 4th-6th depending on how he tests. I like his ball skills. https://www.si.com/college/utah/foo...nfl-draft-buzz-ahead-of-east-west-shrine-bowl
Could be... I want to see combine... but supposedly Logan has really short arms... then again... so did Jason Kelce If Jones measures like Kelce (esp. short shuttle), I would still draft him
I think defensive picks are unnecessary unless Caserio signs/trades for offensive pieces. We have way too many needs on offense to pick anyone on defense through the first 4 rounds at minimun.
