My Top Seven Wide Receivers for the Texans in the 2024 NFL Draft.
There's plenty of options for a team that needs more weapons
The Houston Texans need to get more weapons for C.J. Stroud. I love the potential of Tank Dell and I believe Nico Collins is closer to the player from 2023 than he is in previous years. Joe Mixon is a nice addition and keeping Dalton Schultz was necessary.

This is one of the deepest wide receiver classes I can remember. On day two of this year's draft, there will be impact players, yes difference makers. The Texans seem to agree with their trade from the first into the second.
The top tier of this draft class will be long gone before the Texans are on the clock.
Stroud’s former college teammate Marvin Harrison Jr. looks to continue Ohio State wideouts' success in the NFL. He’s one of the safest players to me. Speaking of impressive universities in producing wideouts, LSU has another top pick coming with Malik Nabers. Rounding out the triumvirate of top pass catchers is Washington’s Odunze.
Brian Thomas is another LSU product I believe will be long gone before the Texans pick. I would also be surprised to see Adonai Mitchell from Texas last long after Thomas.
It might sound like the best of the best are gone. I assure you there are plenty left who can help the Texans replicate and improve what they accomplished in 2023.
Here are my top seven wideouts for the Texans in this year’s draft.

What I don’t like: After Tank Dell last year, I try not to worry about size, but he’s a
