The Houston Texans had a very good offensive line last season. Head coach Gary Kubiak was able to rotate most of his interior lineman in an out of games as they got tired. But the Texans were a bit short handed at the T position still last season. While Derek Newton and Wade Smith were both very effective the Texans felt they needed to get another big body to add to the their already strong group of O lineman. Enter San Jose State's David Quessenberry, a 6'6 295lb T that the Texans hope will become a solid player and maybe their future RT.
Quessenberry will come into Texans camp as the 3rd LT in the Texans depth chart. That'll put him firmly behind both Duane Brown and Ryan Harris and battling Nick Mondeck, a T that was signed to the Texans practice squad last season but made the teams roster. The biggest knock on Quessenberry is his size. He'll need to gain some muscle weight to be able to play T at the Pro level. But the Texans are hoping with 2 players ahead of him on the depth chart he'll have time to learn, and put on some more weight. If Quessenberry gets time to mature the Texans are hoping he'll be the anchor on the right side of their line I a year or 2 opposite All Pro LT Duane Brown.
