We are getting closer and closer to the 2014 NFL Draft, but before we look forward to that event, let’s take a look at some former Houston Texans players and where they will be playing next season.
First off, we have former Texans tight end Owen Daniels agreeing to a one-year deal with the Baltimore Ravens.
ESPN wrote about the deal:
"“A two-time Pro Bowler, Daniels is expected to back up Dennis Pitta and play a significant role in the Ravens’ two tight end packages.”"
Remember, Gary Kubiak, the former Texans head coach, is now the offensive coordinator for the Ravens. They should make a decent combo for at least next season.
The biggest question for Daniels is if he can stay healthy.
• CSN Houston has an article about Danieal Manning signing with the Cincinnati Bengals, where he joins former Texans assistant coach Vance Joseph.
The article states:
"“Manning, 31, was released on Monday after the Texans asked him to take a pay cut. He was set to have a $6 million cap hit and a $4.5 million base salary in 2014. The Texans elected to save the $4.5 million in cap room.”"
I don’t believe the Texans will miss Manning that much, especially with the recent signing of Chris Clemons.
• Here is an NFL.com article about if Jadeveon Clowney can play a “McGinest” role for the Texans.
The article states:
"“After Jadeveon Clowney wowed onlookers with a ‘phenomenal’ pro day workout, he told assembled reporters he would make the Houston Texans ‘miserable’ if they pass on him at No. 1 overall in the 2014 NFL Draft.”"
That statement is true as Clowney is probably the best talent in the draft
