With the 26th pick in the WCG Mock Draft, the Houston Texans select...
Stephen Hill, WR, Georgia Tech
dieseldc3: The Texans are often said to need a number two receiver, which makes Alshon Jeffery an immediate help for a 2012 receiver. But I look at this team and think they need a "Next #1" receiver. Someone who when Andre Johnson is healthy can develop his NFL game and if he is not can provide the "blow the top off" play making that AJ provides. Andre is now 30 and this pick could keep the offense on track as his health and skills decline in the coming years the way Marvin Harrison gave way to Reggie Wayne. Megatron-Light is the pick.
