Who Texans will pick in first round, according to experts' final mock drafts

As all the NFL experts published their final mock drafts Thursday morning, it seems everyone's in agreement that the Texans are deciding between two players at No. 3: North Carolina State offensive lineman Ickey Ekwonu and LSU cornerback Derek Stingley.

Stingley has been getting a lot of buzz this week as someone the Texans are high on despite many evaluators having Cincinnati's Sauce Gardner as the higher-rated cornerback. The 20-year-old Stingley comes with a lot of upside, since he looked like one of the best players in the country as a freshman, but then he played just 10 games at LSU the next two seasons.
