Texans' Calen Bullock: Reeled in by Houston in the third
The Texans selected Bullock in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 78th overall.
Bullock was a safety at USC and could very well stick there in the NFL, but at just 6-foot-2, 188 pounds he risks getting clobbered in run defense if he doesn't add any weight. There are at least two bits of good news on this, though. The first is that Bullock might have the skill set to play at corner anyway, and at that position he'd have close to the ideal frame for press coverage. The second is that Bullock is still young, turning 21 on April 30. If Bullock were something more like 200 pounds in a year or two it wouldn't be shocking, and at that point he'd have a more conventional safety frame.

Texans' Blake Fisher: O-Line depth for Stroud in Houston
The Texans selected Fisher in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 59th overall.
The Texans have an impressive tackle duo on paper in Laremy Tunsil and Tytus Howard, but that pairing missed a combined 13 games last season. Getting a quality depth piece who can develop into a starter when needed is a shrewd pick by Houston. Fisher is the lesser known of the Notre Dame tackles in this class behind Joe Alt, but he is talented. At 6-foot-6 and 310 pounds with above-average athleticism and anchor strength, Fisher can hold his own on the perimeter. Fisher started 27 games for the Irish at right tackle, and that will likely be his role in Houston down the road.

Texans' Kamari Lassiter: Heads to Lone Star State
The Texans selected Lassiter in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 42nd overall.
Lassiter (6-feet, 186 pounds) was a productive player on a strong Georgia defense, but it's difficult to recall the last time a cornerback was drafted this high with athletic testing as poor as Lassiter's. More specifically, Lassiter's 4.65-second 40-yard time at his pro day is bad even by safety standards, let alone a cornerback who's thin and with short arms (30 and 7/8-inches). Lassiter's short-area movement is very good, as evidenced by his elite 6.62-second three-cone drill, but he might need the Houston pass rush to hurry the quarterback before wideouts get the chance to take Lassiter downfield. Be it in the slot or on the boundary, the Texans clearly have immediate plans for Lassiter after drafting him this high.
