The Houston Texans need a number of positions in this weekend’s NFL Draft, but which need is the biggest?
The 2024 NFL Draft kicks off tonight, and while the Houston Texans aren’t expected to make a pick until tomorrow, they are eagerly looking at tonight’s results in order to better prepare for the later rounds.
Last year, the Texans drafted C.J. Stroud with the No. 2 overall pick, and he appears to have the chance to become the franchise quarterback for many years to come. The team doesn’t have a solidified answer for a backup quarterback, but only 32 percent of ..read more

Wanna see if the Texans trade back into the first round? We can help with that.
It’s here. It’s finally here. After months of waiting and mock drafting and listening to pundits pretend to know what they’re talking about, the NFL Draft has arrived.
Here is how the first round currently looks.
While Houston Texans fans won’t have much to watch during Thursday’s first round coverage, there is still the distinct possibility that Nick Caserio moves up into the first round if there’s a player available that the team really wants. And as we saw last ye ..read more

The last mock draft before Houston begins picking their 2024 draft class
It’s time. The final no-trade Houston Texans mock draft. You can find all of my mock drafts in the links below to see how things have changed since the first edition in February.
Houston is at such a unique position where they are in a win now, best player available, build on strengths position. It’s hard to not defer to simply adding talent at the biggest positions of need; that being defensive tackle and cornerback. What I don’t think fans truly consider is that Nick Case ..read more

It wasn’t that long ago when the Houston Texans organization was viewed as an apparent clown college of mismanagement and how-to live-look-ins of franchise incompetence.
Good ole Jack Easterby had owner Cal McNair’s ear and was Grima Wormtongue’ing his way to million$ at the expense of the good people of Houston.
Meanwhile, Cal, the Cy-Fair Athletic Ring of Honor inductee, found himself labeled as the professional sports version of Tommy Boy.
Things were not looking good.
Somewhere along the way, whether at the urging of the McNa ..read more

What is the history of RB and WR in round two?
As we continue our journey before the draft, we continue looking at the history of draft selections and their relative success. Someone wise along the way said that past was prologue. In other words, the past can help predict the future. The Houston Texans have no first rounders as of this writing, but they do have two second rounders.
Fortunately, if the season started today, the Texans could throw out a starting lineup on offense and defense capable of winning more games than it loses. That wasn’t true last year an ..read more

The third of a three-part series.
We finally get to the end of the draft series the week of the draft. A large part of this process is a way to help manage all of our expectations. Sometimes we expect way too much. It’s really about shiny examples of stars found in every round of the draft. Tom Brady, Jason Kelce, and Stefon Diggs are not the norm. The question is what is reasonable to expect given the industry standard.
In order to do that, we are taking the entire NFL and the drafts between 2010 and 2019. We stopped there because we wanted to give everyone at least ..read more
