WR Jayden Higgins, HOU (3 Viewers)

[zeeshan2]

As the owner of picks 3 and 11, Im absolutely PRAYING he gets backs to me at 11, but I doubt it.

I'd probably draft him around 7/8/9, myself.

him and his teammate Noel, I absolutely love to get my hands on

If you wondered what the league thought about Iowa State's Jayden Higgins, two teams -- #Titans and #Raiders -- both traded out after he was picked by the #Texans.

Big fan of the pick. Tank will be a nice #3 when he comes back in 2026.

edit: now with the Texans adding Noel, I think Dell's injury may be worse than anticipated.

Ugh, he could NOT have been put in a more crowded WR room after the Noel pick too.

I'll love it for real football, but for fantasy, this butchered both guys, but STILL my WR2 in tis draft class

CJ can't throw to these guys if he's not upright

I'm not seeing a crowded WR room for Houston. Last year was a crowded rehab room. Nico has yet to play a full season or start more than 12 games. Tank, who knows. Diggs injured then gone. Hou was getting pretty desperate for bodies to line up wide last year. They needed to go WR heavy in this draft imo.

no way to know if those deals would've happened anyway, seems like a leap to say there's correlation there.

Are you sure about that?

100% this. I'll throw it in the Higgins thread but really it applies to everyone on this team not named Nico.... I would not feel warm and fuzzy about this line. There was a point in the 2000s where I kept saying as a Steelers fan "well, it's not like our line could get worse". Spoiler alert, it could and it did. It was their number one draft need coming in, and with their 9 picks they took ONE, an OT, who Zierline graded out as "will eventually become an average starter". And this is after trading away their only highly graded lineman of the bunch Tunsil.

I'm avoiding this entire team in redraft. And again, outside Nico who should be able to survive on talent and a high target share, I wouldn't feel great about any of these guys doing much in dynasty for at least a year or two. It feels like their gameplan will be to have a top 6 defense again, control the clock, and keep games close and low scoring.
