Texans hope to benefit from 'sweet spot' of NFL draft
Houston lost defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins to the Cincinnati Bengals in free agency and traded Maliek Collins to the San Francisco 49ers for a seventh-round pick. They signed former Tennessee Titan s defensive tackle Denico Autry to a two-year, $20 million deal, but the rest of the rotation at DT has four players on one-year deals.
