Hindsight always provides clarity, and for the Houston Texans, the 2019 NFL draft is becoming clearer as to where the team started going off the rails.
Consider that entering the 2022 season there are just two picks remaining on the roster in first-round tackle Tytus Howard and second-round guard Max Scharping. Howard had his fifth-year option picked up, but Scharping may not see a second contract with Houston after 2022.
According to Trevor Sikkema from Pro Football Focus, who conducted a redo of the 2019 NFL draft, the Texans take former Auburn cornerback Jamel Dean, who originally went in the third round to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
