Summary

It might be hard to believe but the Texans were a dominate defense last season, ranking second overall. They were third against the pass and fourth against the run. This unit did it all as the team took a big step forward. It might be hard for the team to repeat last season, especially with Mario Williams gone, but they still have plenty of talent in place and should do well. The secondary is very good with cornerback Jonathan Joseph leading the way. And the linebackers do a great job for the Texans, including Brian Cushing and Bradie James - two young players on the rise. The pass rush is a bit of a concern with Williams gone but Antonio Smith and J.J. Watt should provide some nice sack totals for the team. The special teams have potential with Daniel Manning as their kick return man. He has a history of some big returns and rookie Keshawn Martin should get his chances as punt returner, filling the void left by Jacoby Jones.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
The Texans will have a hard time matching last season but should be considered a fantasy starter. They have sack and interception potential while limiting yards and points. Houston is the real deal defensively. Last season wasn't a fluke.

Notes

The Houston Texans will not pursue WR's Percy Harvin (Vikings) or Mike Wallace (Steelers) this offseason, according to John McClane of the Houston Chronicle. Instead, the Texans will focus on re-signing their own veteran players and extending players like LB Brian Cushing and DE Antonio D. Smith.
