2023 NFL Draft: Day One (Round One) - Winners & Losers
Winners: Houston Texans & Pittsburgh Steelers
The Houston Texans were the gunslingers of the NFL Draft’s First Round, shaking things up with a trade to move up into the #3 overall pick, to compliment the #2 overall pick that they already had in tow. At the #2 slot, Houston went with what they think is their franchise quarterback of the future in Ohio State’s CJ Stroud, a talent who checks every box across the board with solid size, great vision, strong mobility and more. If Stroud does become that elite-tier talent, the Texans won’t seem too crazy for holding onto their selection and not trading down to see what fell to them.
