The Houston Texans select Garett Bolles, OT, Utah.

After serious consideration to either boosting the offense with another multi-faceted weapon, or develop a future QB, Rick Smith goes against the grain to solidify a position of concern.

With Duane Brown struggling to stay healthy with age, and Derek Newton recovering from blowing out BOTH patella tendons, the Texans choose the best course of action going forward is to rebuild a pocket for whoever end up behind center. If all remain healthy, Houston now has a serviceable-to-good OL, but if not, they at least secured a tackle right before the OT market drops off within the draft.
