A closer look at why the Houston Texans moved up to land William Fuller in the 2016 NFL Draft.
The Houston Texans learned from past experiences as a franchise, (most notably missing out on a couple of highly coveted prospects in 2015), and this, along with other experiences, changed how the team now approaches the NFL Draft.
Let’s take a look.

Phillip Dorsett was highly valued by the Texans and, after selecting Kevin Johnson, they went to work getting a deal in place with the New England Patriots to land Dorsett at the end of the first round.
