This weekend has been pretty busy when it comes to news that could end up affecting the Houston Texans.
The good news for the Texans is that quarterback prospects Mitchell Trubisky, Patrick Mahomes and DeShaun Watson all looked impressive during the throwing drills at the NFL Scouting Combine.
The bad news is that this could mean all three quarterbacks won’t be on the board when the Texans are picking at 23.
More good news for the Texans is that some of their coaches had an advantage at the combine.

Was Jimmy Garoppolo hinting at a trade on Friday night? Probably not. If he was it likely doesn’t mean he’s coming to Houston.

Do the Texans really need another pass rusher at outside linebacker? Not really, but you can never have enough pass rushers. Basham would add some nice depth behind Jadeveon Clowney and Whitney Mercilus.

Foster would be a nice pick for the Houston Texans, but is he worth having on the team? Seems like he has an attitude problem.
