After Round 1 of last month's NFL draft, the Houston Texans made it clear their sights were set on landing Minnesota offensive tackle Aireontae Ersery as their hopeful Laremy Tunsil 2.0.
By the middle of the second round, Houston pulled the trigger, sending picks No. 58 and No. 99 to the Las Vegas Raiders to move up 10 spots and make the selection. Now in the building, Ersey can hopefully transform into a stable option at left tackle, protecting C.J. Stroud's blindside for years to come.
But the Texans really wanted Ersey following his top-30 visit with the franchise in the offseason.
