The NFL draft is 15 days away.
It’s a draft that’s shaping up to define the future of the Houston Texans and provides a clear idea of how general manager Nick Caserio wants to run the team. With a draft of this level of significance, rumors are rampant leading up to the event.
There’s speculation the drafts priority will be to help second-year quarterback Davis Mills and give the Texans a proper evaluation of what they have under center. Some think the draft will focus on giving coach Lovie Smith the best possible chance to succeed as a defensive coach and Caserio’s second hire in as many seasons. Other still think it will just be Caserio taking his best player on the board at every pick, as a bad team attempts to accumulate value.
With little certainty as to the Texans’ plan but more and more public commentary coming out, the Texans Wire is releasing its first 4-round mock draft.
