When the Toro Times released our final mock draft for the Houston Texans, the player projected at 40th overall was Ross Blacklock of TCU, and this was the best choice the Texans could have made with the defensive tackle being available at this point of the draft, as he was the third defensive tackle selected in the 2020 NFL Draft.
The Texans and head coach Bill O’Brien needed to fill the void left by D.J. Reader, and by drafting Blacklock, all 6’3″, 295 pounds of him will be a very nice addition to fill in where Reader left off on the Houston defensive line.
