Your Houston Texans have had the “honor” of picking first in the NFL Draft three times in their history. Yesterday, Elliot Harrison of NFL.com ranked the top fifty first overall picks in the NFL Draft. To say you might be surprised by Harrison’s analysis, particularly when it comes to David Carr, Mario Williams, and Jadeveon Clowney, would be a gross understatement.
Peyton Manning was the clear number one on the list. No surprise there. In fact, no active players were ranked in the Top 10. The first active player listed was Eli Manning at #12.
