Iheanachor has drawn widespread interest in the course of the pre-draft process, which comes as little surprise given his status as a possible first-rounder.

Miller racked up 54 starts with the Tigers, operating as a mainstay at the best tackle spot over that span. After earning first-team All-ACC honors in each of the past two years, he will likely be counted on to be a key contributor up front within the NFL. Solidifying either tackle spot can be imperative for a Houston team trying to break through within the playoffs while constructing around quarterback <strong>C.J. Stroud\u00a0<\/strong>and Co.<\/p>\n<p>The Texans have re-signed three offensive linemen this spring, including veteran\u00a0<strong>Trent Brown<\/strong>. Houston also added <strong>Braden Smith\u00a0<\/strong>in free agency, giving the team a pair of experienced right tackle options. Adding younger depth at that spot (not to say someone capable of probably handling work on the blindside) would still be a viable approach, though. It should be interesting to see if Iheanachor or Miller wind up being chosen by the Texans in the event that they can be found when the team is first on the clock.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once more, the Texans have found themselves looking for improvements along the offensive line during an offseason.
