25. Houston Texans: QB Deshaun Watson, Clemson

The Texans have a Super Bowl caliber roster. Minus the quarterback position.

Unless Bill O’Brian really believes Tom Savage is the answer under center, they will address quarterback in the draft.

Watson has many traits similar to Marcus Mariota—he throws accurate deep passes, has the ability to throw on the run and has incredible touch.

There are some issues Watson needs to fix before becoming a reliable starter but he will be an instant upgrade in Houston.
