The Houston Texans: Pick-alogical Conundrum , or, How Many Young Bloods Can One Team Possibly Need?
Ah, the Houston Texans. A team shrouded in mystery these days, but not the thrilling kind, more like the "what's in that Tupperware container in the back of the fridge?" kind of mystery. One thing that isn't a mystery, however, is their penchant for acquiring draft picks. Let's just say they're like a squirrel with a nut obsession, but instead of nuts, it's draft picks.
So, How Many Picks Do They Have Exactly?
This is where things get a little squirrelly (pun intended). The exact number seems to fluctuate more than a middle schooler's mood. We were led to believe it was 8, then whispers of 9 emerged, and now, some reports suggest it might even be a cool 12. Honestly, at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if they showed up to the draft with a mystery box full of ping pong balls and a dream.
Where Did All These Picks Come From?
Well, dear reader, it all started with a certain Deshaun Watson. Remember him? The talented-but-troubled quarterback? The Texans shipped him out to parts unknown (Cleveland, to be precise), and in return, they got a treasure trove of draft picks. We're talking a pick-pocalypse of epic proportions!
They also haven't been shy about adding to the pile through trades. Let's just say other teams are starting to look at the Texans like a walking pick ATM.
But Seriously, What Are They Gonna Do With All These Picks?
This is the million-dollar question, folks. Are they building a team of rookies so young they need juice boxes on the sidelines? Are they planning on opening a prestigious academy for the ✨art of being drafted✨?
My money's on them accidentally drafting a whole marching band. Can you imagine? The opposing team scores a touchdown, and instead of cheers, they're met with a rousing rendition of "76 Trombones." Pure chaos.
In all seriousness, though, the Texans have a chance to do something special here. With all these picks, they have the potential to build a real powerhouse. But here's hoping they avoid the rookie overload and actually manage to put together a team that, you know, wins games.
Because let's be honest, even the most enthusiastic squirrel gets tired of collecting nuts eventually.
