Houston Texans draft picks 2021: Round-by-round selections

Here is a 2021 NFL draft pick-by-pick breakdown for the Houston Texans:

Round 3 (No. 67 overall) - Davis Mills, QB, Stanford: Houston's first pick of this draft ... is a potential replacement for Deshaun Watson. Mills was highly recruited out of high school, but knee injuries limited him to 11 starts. He ran a sub-4.6 40 at his pro day and is the kind of compelling prospect you'd love to develop ... maybe behind Tyrod Taylor? Keep an eye on this one. Draft tracker

Round 3 (89, from Browns through Panthers) - Nico Collins, WR, Michigan: A big target at 6-4, 215 pounds, Houston begins reloading its receiving corps after losing Will Fuller V in free agency. Collins averaged 19.7 yards per catch and had seven scores in 2019. Draft tracker
