Why Texans fans should be excited about Kenyon Green

The Houston Texans needed better play from their offensive line and running game, and they made a pick to help them do just that with Texas A&M’s Kenyon Green falling right into their lap. This unit just got a lot better with this pick.

Green is a massive human with unreal athleticism, and production from both the tackle and guard positions. He has excellent versatility, and experience, working to become one of college football’s best offensive lineman this past season. He is a mauler in the run game, swallowing up linemen and overwhelming them early, and being incredibly steady in the passing game, where he was one of the most consistent performers in college football.

Green should start right away at right guard next to Tytus Howard, and secure the Texans one of the most young and talented offensive lines in the AFC. They made investments across the line and it will likely pay off in a big way in blocking for Davis Mills.
