How Well Have The Texans Historically Drafted Quarterbacks?

Since the Houston Texans have sprung from the NFL’s womb, this franchise has drafted eight quarterbacks: David Carr, Drew Henson, Dave Ragone, B.J. Symons, Alex Brink, T.J. Yates, Tom Savage, and of course, Deshaun Watson.

Seth Walder from ESPN’s analytics department recently ranked how every NFL team has drafted the quarterback position by using Pro Football Reference’s weighted career approximate value. Despite all the lumps over the years, Walder has the Houston Texans ranked 20th in the NFL.

Total drafted QB career AV above expectation: minus-50

Best value pick: Deshaun Watson, No.
