CART BEFORE THE HORSE?
Mike Florio and Charean Williams discuss the Texans decision to interview Jim Caldwell for their head coaching vacancy and weigh in on if he would be a good fit coaching the Texans. Also, Florio has a hard time understanding why the Texans would be interviewing head coaches when they haven't hired a GM yet. Will the new GM really have all the power in Houston? Not likely if he's unable to pick his own head coach, and this could definitely chase the best GM candidates away from Houston.
Williams on the other hand, hopes the Texans are not just interviewing Caldwell for the sole purpose of complying with the Rooney Rule. Be sure to check out the video to learn more.
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.
