2008 – Houston Texans – Duane Brown

Brown was drafted by the Texans to help solidify their offensive line. Brown has been a solid fixture on an offensive line that has opened wide holes for Arian Foster in the Zone Blocking Scheme, a scheme coming to Cleveland. Last year the Texans’ offensive line struggled some but Brown was not considered a weak link at all. How he adjusts to the new scheme coming in will be interesting but he has shown the versatility that should help him succeed. The Browns may be looking to shore up their right side offensive line and a Brown caliber player would be perfect to bookend Joe Thomas and move Mitchell Schwartz inside.
