NFL insider says Texans will use first-round pick to protect CJ Stroud

The Houston Texans have several gaps to fill, particularly in their offense, as they aim to join the top tier of AFC championship contenders by 2025. NFL Draft insider Daniel Jeremiah believes that one specific position group will be targeted with Houston's first-round pick next week.

Jeremiah, a longtime NFL Network analyst and former NFL scout for a decade from 2003-12, didn't hesitate to tab the offensive line as Houston's targeted position with the No. 25 pick in the first round next Thursday. He then went one step further, identifying a pair of SEC standouts as options.
