The Houston Texans are on the clock.
Well, not yet, but at least they know their draft positioning entering April 25 in Green Bay.
Following a 24-13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday afternoon at Arrowhead Stadium, the Texans will select 25th overall in the 2025 draft. At 10-7, Houston had the worst record of any team remaining team, cementing the franchise with the lowest pick remaining.
Multiple positions could be in play ahead of free agency, but trench play has to be at the top of the list on both sides. Houston plans on upgrading one of the guard spots this offseason. The same goes for defensive tackle.
The Lions will pick No. 28 overall in the 2025 NFL Draft.
The Texans will pick No. 25 overall.

With Stefon Diggs set to hit free agency and Tank Dell out for most of next season, adding a wide receiver isn’t the worst option in the first round. And Houston could benefit from adding a long-term running mate with rookie Calen Bullock at safety.
The current pick is subject to trades, of course. Texans GM Nick Caserio has been a very aggressive dealmaker in the past, moving up nine spots in 2023 to select Will Anderson Jr. at the No. 3 overall following the selection of C.J. Stroud.
Last season, Caserio traded the first-round pick to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for two second-round picks and a future fifth-round pick, which was used in the trade for Diggs from Buffalo.
