Expert Commentary
Just like McKinstry in the last pick, Lassiter isn’t a burner. However, he’s a physical, talented cornerback that has the ability to tackle in the open field and come in as a Day 1 starter at nickel for the Texans. This is a great pick.

Expert Commentary
This pick might not come to fruition right away for the Texans, but it’s a great long-term play. Fisher is a bit raw, but he’s young and is still a realistic bet to hit his ceiling in a big way for the Texans. This pick could pay off in the long run for C.J. Stroud and the Texans.

Nice pick up for the Texans, who needed a safety to pair with Jalen Pitre. Bullock was one of the few playmakers on defense for the Trojans, notching nine interceptions in three seasons.
