The Texans and their coach Bill O'Brien have been very frustrating to watch so far this season, especially compared to how exciting they were in 2017. The offense looks nothing like it did last year, and O'Brien is struggling with time management and keeping his QB protected. Houston doesn't want another David Carr situation on their hands where their QB gets ruined before he has an opportunity to reach his full potential.

The Houston Texans came into this draft with many anticipating they would trade up to address their need on the offensive line. Instead, the Texans elected to trade back to pick No. 34 after agreeing to a deal with the Giants.

The Texans also receive pick number 99, and a 2026 third-round selection.

When Ohio State's offensive lineman Donovan Jackson and Texas receiver Matthew Golden went off the board right in front of them, the Texans decided to go with a contingency plan, it seems.

We'll have to wait until Friday night to see what the Texans do with their picks.
