Houston Texans 2014 NFL Draft and Free Agency Wish List

The Houston Texans state of the franchise last year came as a surprise as they were the most talented team on paper before the start of 2013 Regular Season. They got the best defense and that was granted with J.J. Watt, Brian Cushing, and Ed Reed (before he left off) with their Defensive Coordinator Wade Phillips specializing in his 3-4 Scheme. They dominated the league by giving up the least yards per game on every opponent they face. Their offense specialized by their head coach Gary Kubiak failed after their 2-0 start on the season. Matt Schaub consecutive games of throwing pick-six resulted him a backup role for Case Keenum. The Houston Texans, at least need just a quarterback who is a game manager as the defense can handle the opponent. With the lost of Arian Foster for the season, the Houston Texans became a one-dimensional team and it opens up turnovers for their passing game. Having the league's worst record for 2013 Regular Season, this Houston Texans team are ready to bounce back with new coaching staff in place and the first overall pick for the 2014 draft.

But before the 2014 draft begins, the Houston Texans can sign some under-the-radar free agents this coming free agency market. Running back depth should be their priority as it poses their weakest position without Arian Foster home-run threat every time he touches the ball. Signing their own free agents like Antonio Smith and adding Special Teams depth could be the second best thing for the Texans.

In the draft, having a first overall pick gives you a dilemma of who is the player that brings the most impact in the game to pick and give him a lucrative contract that will justify his draft position and his future for the franchise. With Jadeveon Clowney headlining all of sports news to be the no. 1 pick, their need to have a new franchise quarterback in place could play here as the Top 5 pick composes of three decorated quarterbacks coming out of college. The pick here could be Johnny Manziel as he possesses the most electrifying moves on college tape and to back all of that up, only in his freshman year in college, he got the best trophy for all college and university player there is, the Heisman Trophy. And for Houston Texans Day 2 picks, they could pick a shifty running back to groom under Arian Foster and an offensive lineman to continue their trend of assembling the best offensive line for their zone-blocking scheme. In the third day, they could have an athletic tight end to complement Johnny Manziel athleticism on the open field. Backups for Brian Cushing and starting cornerbacks should be on later rounds.

The Houston Texans' redemption to atop once again in the AFC South should happen shortly and could make a case for a Super Bowl run under their new head coach Bill O'Brien. What are your thoughts for Houston Texans coaching and personnel moves this off-season? Write it down on the section below.
