Historically, third round picks in the NFL Draft don’t always turn out to be the greatest players of all time. However, guys like Travis Kelce, Russell Wilson, Hines Ward, Steve Smith Sr., Dan Fouts and Joe Montana were all 3rd rounders.
Can Nick Caserio strike that sort of gold in next week’s NFL Draft?
Maybe...
Your Houston Texans have yet to land a hall of fame player in the 3rd round, but that certainly doesn’t mean it can’t (or won’t) happen.
