While I have been a big believer in the potential of quarterback Ryan Mallett, the fact is all he has at the NFL level so far is simply that, potential. Without a lot of experience under his belt the Houston Texans don’t have much to go on, other than what head coach Bill O’Brien has seen at practice and the few snaps he has gotten in New England and Houston.
In the most recent Toro Times mock draft we had the team waiting until the sixth round to select a quarterback, with them selecting Shane Carden out of East Carolina.
