Texans address offensive needs early; have 3 picks Saturday
HOUSTON (AP) The Houston Texans addressed their biggest needs in the first two three rounds of the draft, adding receivers Will Fuller and Braxton Miller and center Nick Martin.
On Saturday they'll have three more picks as they wrap up a draft where they chose offensive players in each of the first three rounds for the first time since their first draft in 2002.
They boosted their offense when they signed quarterback Brock Osweiler and running back Lamar Miller in free agency. But they wanted more playmakers alongside Pro Bowl receiver DeAndre Hopkins last season.
They did that in the first round with the speedy Fuller and Miller, a former Ohio State quarterback who converted to receiver.
Martin, a second-round pick, could start after Houston lost center Ben Jones in free agency.
