“With the 70th pick in the NFL draft, the Houston Texans select Jaelen Strong, wide receiver, Arizona State University.”
These are words I was hoping to hear for the Texans going into the draft. Not particularly Jaelen Strong’s name, but hearing that the Texans picked a wide receiver was very important. With the departure of longtime Texan Andre Johnson this offseason, the wide receiver core is definitely getting a different look this year than it’s had in previous years. It’s important that this first year with the Johnson-less team doesn’t get off to a slow start.
