25. Houston Texans

Notre Dame. Deshone Kizer . 25. player. 10. The Houston Texans know they are a quarterback away from being a contender for the Super Bowl. Brock Osweiler clearly isn’t their answer. Odds are they might seek out a cheap veteran option in free agency like a Tony Romo. However, that would be just a temporary fix at best. They still need to find their guy of the future. Good fortune may be smiling upon them as one of the most pro-ready in the draft remains available. <p>Opinions are mixed on Deshone Kizer due to his inconsistency at times on the field and the fact he was benched during the season. His numbers are modest and he didn’t win a lot of games. Yet his talent is undeniable. He’s got that big body with the strong arm and elusive mobility. When allowed to survey the field he can deliver strikes at any level of the field. It remains to be seen whether he can be a competitive leader.</p>. QB
