QUARTERBACK
Matt Schaub
———TJ Yates
———Case Keenum

*Schaub supposedly played hurt down the stretch last year (surprise there); always draft him knowing that he’ll be injured at some point.
*Yates will likely be handed the backup job because of his experience and Keenum’s lack of arm strength.

RUNNING BACK
Arian Foster (back – probable for Week 1) (3DB, GLB)
———Ben Tate (3DB)
———Cierre Wood
———Dennis Johnson

*The Texans have been downplaying Foster’s injury all camp; he is always going to be day-to-day during the season. His previous workloads and current injuries have caused serious durability questions but he’s been cleared for full practice. He should be drafted inside the Top 10 at minimum.
*Even though Foster could end up being fine, Tate is still one of the best handcuffs in fantasy; the Texans need to reduce Foster’s workload.
*Wood locked down the #3 RB role ahead of Karim who did not survive final cuts.

WIDE RECEIVER
LWR Andre Johnson
———DeVier Posey (Achilles – questionable for Week 1)

RWR DeAndre Hopkins (concussion – probable for Week 1)
———Keshawn Martin (WR3)
———Lestar Jean

*Johnson is slowing down, despite his heavy production last year; Hopkins is being groomed heavily to take over the top spot soon.
*Martin is supposedly locked in as the slot receiver.
*HC Gary Kubiak is saying that Posey will likely come off the PUP list before the season starts.
*Hopkins has a mild concussion, but should be ready to start the season.

TIGHT END
Owen Daniels
———Garrett Graham
———Ryan Griffin

*Daniels is coming off of his best fantasy season, but durability issues always hang over him.

KICKER
Randy Bullock

*Bullock’s groin tear is completely healed, as evidenced by the Texans not signing anyone else.
