The NFL draft is officially one month away, meaning its ramp-up season for evaluating prospects, deciphering reports and making predictions. With free agency in the rearview mirror, teams undoubtable shift all their focus toward the draft to find their next stars. For the Houston Texans, they’ll have to wait until Day 2 of the draft to make their picks if everything remains the same. Houston traded its No. 23 pick to the Minnesota Vikings for the No. 42 pick and another second-round pick in 2025. It was a big trade and one that head coach DeMeco Ryans said they did because the second day is the “sweet spot” for finding quality players. The Texans did well in previous years with picks like wide receivers Tank Dell (2023) and Nico Collins (2021) as well as linebacker Christian Harris (2022).
