The 2025 NFL Draft is HERE… but the Houston Texans won’t be picking in the first round! 😱 GM Nick Caserio shook things up by trading out of Round 1 with the New York Giants, adding extra Day 2 and Day 3 capital.

Let’s be real… Texans fans deserve a masterpiece of a draft — not a "what in the world were they thinking?!" moment. 😬 But what would a complete DRAFT DISASTER actually look like for Houston? 👉 Is it trading the house to move up for someone that isn’t even a sure thing? 👉 Is it drafting a linebacker at 25 like it's 1999?! 👉 Or is it forgetting the golden rule: PROTECT CJ STROUD AT ALL COSTS?! On today’s 🔥 episode of Locked On Texans, we’re joined by the always-unfiltered Ruben Gamez of 713 Houston Sports Podcast and Bleacher Report, and he’s NOT pulling punches. 💡 Hear Ruben’s dream draft scenario — it involves trenches, toughness, and making sure CJ Stroud doesn’t have to play hero ball every Sunday. 🎤 He also gives us the inside scoop on CJ Stroud’s Monday presser and why the young QB is already acting like a 10-year vet.

The boys are BACK! And just in time — draft week is heating up in Houston! On today’s episode of Locked On Texans, we hear directly from Head Coach DeMeco Ryans and QB1 C.J. Stroud, and the vibes? IMMACULATE. 🗣️ DeMeco isn't mincing words — “The Texans never draft for need. It’s always best player available.” Sound like confidence... or a classic smokescreen? Meanwhile, C.J. Stroud is settling into his leadership role and loving the early chemistry with new offensive coordinator Nick Caley. “That’s what I’m used to... pre-snap control, putting my guys in the best position.” 👀 Sounds like QB1 is getting exactly what he wants out of this offense. With the NFL Draft just days away, we’re diving into the million-dollar question: 👉 Are the Texans' draft plans unpredictable by design? 👉 Is this all real... or just smoke and mirrors?
