Texans mock draft roundup: 9 players Houston could pick in 2024

The Houston Texans can go in a lot of different directions with the No. 23 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft.

With the 2024 NFL draft still months away, it’s anyone’s guess who will be drafted by which team. Even the No. 1 pick is a bit contentious depending upon what the Chicago Bears want to do at quarterback.

The Texans have their quarterback situation figured out after Houston drafted C.J. Stroud with the No. 2 overall pick in 2023 – a decision that already looks promising after just one season. Houston sent its original 2024 first-round pick to the Arizona Cardinals to move up and selected Will Anderson Jr. at No. 3 – another move that paid off in one season.

Houston still owns the No. 23 pick thanks to the Deshaun Watson trade with the Cleveland Browns and could go in a few different directions with the selection. Both sides of the ball looked great in DeMeco Ryans’ first season at the helm, but the Texans could find quality depth in the first round – especially if the team can’t keep its marquee internal free agents this spring.

There is no true consensus on who the Texans will pick or what position they’ll focus on with the No. 23 pick. So, here’s a round-up of all the players various media members have selected for Houston in their mock drafts.
