Number One: Houston Texans

The Houston Texans have already shown interest in the former New Orleans Saints offensive guard Larry Warford. Warford is a three-time Pro Bowler and Bill O’Brien is in desperate need of some talent to help him keep his job through the 2020 season.

DeShaun Watson has struggled to stay on his feet in his NFL career up to this point. He has been sacked a staggering 125 times in his three-year career including a league-leading 62 sacks in 2018. He needs the help.

If the Texans plan on Watson being able to distribute the ball to Brandin Cooks, Randall Cobb, Kenny Stills, and Will Fuller, then they need to make sure he has protection. A top guard would be the perfect solution.

Adding Larry Warford to an offense that already consists of Laremy Tunsil, Tytus Howard, and Nick Martin would provide the Texans with a talented guard to help keep DeShaun Watson upright.
