With the 205th Pick Houston Selects: OT Austin Deculus

With his final pick, Nick Caserio has once again looked towards the Tigers after selecting LSU offensive tackle Austin Deculus with the 205th overall selection; tying a nice bow on what has been an offseason priority to give Davis Mills a more supportive offense. Deculus is slightly short tackle by average metrics (6’5” 321 lbs.), but has a lot of valuable experience playing SEC football.

He was a member of the national championship squad in 2019 that won the Joe Moore award for best offensive line unit in nation. He is a pure right tackle prospect who spent most of his snaps there for the Tigers but it’s also worth noting he spent a lot of snaps there and was a bit of an ironman who played in an LSU record 61 games.
