About this episode

Garret Williams provides a full breakdown of the Texans' trades and draft picks on Day 2 of the NFL Draft.

Texans made another aggressive move on Day 2 of the NFL Draft, trading up to land Ohio State defensive tackle Kayden McDonald and adding Michigan tight end Marlin Klein. In this livestream, I break down everything you need to know — the trade details, why Houston moved up, and how both players fit into DeMeco Ryans’ system moving forward. Kayden McDonald brings size, power, and disruption potential on the interior, while Marlin Klein gives the Texans a true in-line Y tight end with upside as a receiver. This stream covers film thoughts, scheme fit, roster impact, and what these picks say about the Texans’ overall draft strategy. If you’re looking for a full breakdown of BOTH picks in one place — this is it. Drop your thoughts in the comments — how are you feeling about Day 2?
