"The Senior Bowl and the NFL scouting combine are in the books and we’re less than two months away from the opening night of the 2016 Draft. As such, it’s time to update the Harris 100 and as expected, there are a few changes.I dropped six players out of the Harris 100, namely Penn State QB Christian Hackenberg who has struggled since his freshman season. He’s the player with the biggest drop in the Harris 100, but not the only one who dropped out."
Five Brock Osweiler Questions for Texans Fans – By Sean Pendergast, Houston Press
"1. What impact did acquiring Osweiler have on the Texans’ Super Bowl odds?On February 8, the day after the Broncos won the Super Bowl, the Texans’ odds to win the whole thing in 2016 were 40/1. That was when the betting public assumed that the team’s QB solution would include a veteran stopgap, a drafted rookie and Tom Savage. Fast-forward to two days ago, and their odds have improved all the way to 20/1! On top of that, only seven teams have shorter odds than the Texans. Furthermore, the Texans’ odds shot past those of the Indianapolis Colts, who were 25/1 on February 8 and held steady at 25/1 this week, which means, in theory, the Texans should be favored to win the AFC South. That’s a lot of confidence in a guy with seven career starts in another coach’s system."
