Alot of people whine about Reggie Bush getting away from the Texans, but they had a very solid draft which could yield 6 future starting players out of 7 picks.  Here’s the breakdown:

Mario Williams was the first pick in the entire draft and he played through alot of nagging injuries.  He does have the look of an impact player down the road.  He played in all 16 games and had 47 tackles, 4.5 sacks, defensed 3 passes, forced a fumble and recovered a fumble. 

2nd round pick DeMeco Ryans was the best defensive player drafted by any team in April.  Ryans & Williams are the building blocks for a defense on a quick rebound.  Ryans played in all 16 games and made 155 tackles, 3.5 sacks, defensed 5 passes, and had 1 interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.  He will probably only get better and that should be a scary thought for other offenses in the division.

The Texans drafted two tackles in the third round of the draft and both of them will be starters for this team soon.  Charles Spencer started two games before missing the rest of the season with a broken leg.  Eric Winston played in 12 games (7 starts) and he handled the job well.

In the 4th round the Texans drafted starting TE Owen Daniels.  Daniels played in 14 games (12 starts) and he caught 34 passes for 352 yards (10.4 avg) with 5 TD catches.  He looks to be the Texans starter for the future.

The Texans selected RB Wali Lundy in the 6th round and he did a good job for them.  He played in 14 games (8 starts) and carried the ball 124 times for 476 yards (3.8 ypc) with 4 TD runs.  He also caught 33 passes for 204 yards (6.2 avg).  Lundy also returned 4 kick-offs for 67 yards (16.8 avg).  He looks like a future back-up running back for the Texans.

7th round pick WR David Anderson played mostly on special teams.  He played in 9 games and caught 1 pass for 27 yards.  He also returned 3 kick-offs for 90 yards.
