Listen Later

In this episode we talk about the upcoming 2023 NFL draft. We start off by discussing the general excitement surrounding the NFL draft, with fans eagerly anticipating which players will be chosen by their favorite teams. 

Next, we bring in Houston Texans correspondent, Aaron Wilson to talk specifically about the Texans' draft strategy. Wilson discusses the team's needs, particularly at the quarterback position, and the different options available to them in the draft. He also weighs in on the potential for the Texans to trade up or down in the draft and how that could impact their draft picks.

We discuss some of the players to watch in this year's draft. Wilson also highlights some of the top prospects and potential steals in the later rounds. We also discuss the impact that off-field issues can have on a player's draft stock and whether teams are willing to take risks on players with character concerns.
