HOUSTON -- People outside the NFL Draft world likely view first-round picks as the "can't-miss" gems of the class. In reality, there are as many strikeouts as home runs.
The Houston Texans won't have a first-or second-round selection in 2021 thanks to the Laremy Tunsil deal of 2019. Too bad, as they would've held the No. 3 selection - though the Pro Bowl left tackle has been worthy of just that since arriving in NRG Stadium.
Some view the Texans as doomed since they won't select until No. 67 overall. The last time they were in this mess came back in 2018 when picking at No. 68.
