Tonight’s game between the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts holds value to the Miami Dolphins and their draft plans in April. Well, maybe just their draft positioning.
Both teams enter tonight with 6-4 records but the Colts hold the head-to-head tiebreaker after beating the Texans in their first meeting four weeks ago. The Texans dropping what essentially would be a game and a half back on the Colts could hurt their chances at a post-season birth.
For the Dolphins, the interest is all about positioning. The Texans gave Miami their first-round pick this year as part of the Laremy Tunsil trade.
