The Texans have been one of the busiest franchises this season, because they have signed their honest share of new players in a free agency, handed out mass contracts to various members of their young core and elite left Tackle Laremy Tunnsil.
As things are now, the attacking line remains one of the weakest position groups on the Roster. After they broke Tunnsil, they added a number of new guards and former Vikings and Jaguars left the Tackle Cam Robinson. None of the guards really moves the needle, but Robinson is a good enough replacement for Tunnsil in the short term.
So where do the Texans go with their first round pick? When you look at the Texans roster, the attacking line and the inside of the Linebacker are the two positions that stand out most in terms of help. The problem is that only one indoor liner earned this year to the first round and he is currently off the board. If the Texans want to find a new defender on the second level in the design, they have to wait until day 2.
If that is the case, there is only one real position to choose here.
With the 24th choice in the SB Nation Community Mock Draft, Kenneth Levy from Battle Red Blog selects the attacking Tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. Van Texas, which keeps the high -dried outlook in the Lone Star State.
24.) Houston Texans: Kelvin Banks Jr., Ot, Texas
Tax: Kelvin Banks Jr. who was available at the age of 24 was too good to be true. Banks is a three -year -old starter in Texas and was the anchor for an attacking line that might see all five starters drawn up. His consistent, playing strength and footwork are elite in a class that misses a lot of real tackles. Analysts convey his potential over guard, but his length, length, lack of lower body thickness and superior footwork is detrimental with a movement inside.
Analysis: If the board is so false before the Texans choose, they must run the card with the name of Banks on it. I think this is a dream situation. I know that the Robinson team has signed to play Tackle on the left, but Banks is too good for a prospect not to be taken here after surprising autumn. The Texans also signed veteran Trent Brown to a different cheap contract to possibly start with the right tackle and if he goes back Bunck enough and stays healthy to play there, you have a wealth of bodies to find your best starting five. Although I believe that the skills of Banks fits best if a tackle fits, he has more than sufficient power to play the guard and grow when Houl determines that that is his best long -term fit with the team.
Top five remaining players:
- James Pearce Jr., Edge, Tennessee
- Luther Burden, WR, Missouri
- Donovan Ezeiruaku, Edge, Boston College
- EMEKA EGBUKA, WR, OHIO State
- Darius Alexander, DT, Toledo
Ed Valentine from Big Blue View and the Giants are back on the clock after back in the first round with the Vikings. They still need a new Quarterback after passing on Shedeur Sanders earlier in De Ronde. Is this the choice to secure the future of the franchise?
