Wednesday War Room: Dylan’s Mock Draft V2.0 (First Round)
In this edition of the Wednesday War Room, we get an all-new mock draft. Wide receiver Alshon Jeffery falls right into Houston’s laps, a big-time talent that fills the Texans’ biggest need. If he and Fletcher Cox were off the board, however, Houston may be forced to reach for someone like Mohamed Sanu. The mock reflects what I expect to happen. As dedicated readers would know, I mocked Dwight Jones to the Texans last month, so keep that in mind.
