Houston Texans general manager Nick Caserio has done a good job of keeping the rest of the sports world in the dark when it comes to the team’s plans in the 2022 NFL draft.
According to Todd McShay from ESPN, the Texans figure to use at least one of their twin first-round selections at Nos. 3 and 13 overall on a pass rusher — or it could be an offensive lineman as NC State tackle Ikem Ekwonu is a key to unlocking a dominant run game.
Houston could also go with a cornerback at the No. 3 spot, which includes targeting not only Cincinnati cornerback Ahmad Gardner, but also LSU cornerback Derek Stingley.
