A long-held assumption was that Houston would take either Young or Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud with the second pick, but Levis and edge rushers Tyree Wilson and Will Anderson Jr. have recently emerged as the favorites to come off the board at No. 2. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport perhaps summed up the situation best earlier this week, stating "no one has any idea what the Houston Texans are going to do. Literally no one, except for [general manager] Nick Caserio and [head coach] DeMeco Ryans."
The Texans have an array of options at their disposal this week.
