The Texans don't pick until the 67th selection in this year's NFL Draft. That's in the third round.
*If you believe the media experts, they'll probably use their first pick on an offensive player.
You saw that asterisk there, didn't you? It was inserted because a few mock drafters believe the Texans will make a trade and get into the first round. Therefore, we put an asterisk in the table below by players who are first-rounders in those mock drafts.
On March 5, there are seven notable mock drafts that have either multi-round projections, or Houston trading up and getting into action on the first night of the Draft.
Receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown from the University of Southern California was the only player that multiple mock drafters tabbed to the Texans.
We'll have more Mock Draft Surveys in the coming weeks. The NFL Draft begins Thursday night, April 29, in Cleveland, Ohio. Houston owns eight selections in the 2021 Draft.
