Texans Meet With 11 NFL Draft Prospects At Senior Bowl

The Houston Texans are taking in the Reese's Senior Bowl and everything it has to offer, including the NFL Draft Prospects.
In this story:

Like every other NFL team, the Houston Texans are in Mobile, AL taking in the Reese's Senior Bowl, hoping to get a first-hand look at some of the top talent that the NFL Draft will have to offer. 

And according to reports from John Crumpler and Cody Stoots, they have met with at least 11 prospects, including three wide receivers and three corners thus far during the event.

Those receivers - Texas A&M's Ainias Smith, Michigan's Roman Wilson and Arizona's Jacob Cowing, all have significant experience as well. Wilson might be the most intriguing of the group, however, helping to lead Michigan to a national title last month behind his tough-nosed play style. 

Meanwhile, Smith and Cowing have a combined 10 years of experience between them, with Cowing scoring a whopping 33 touchdowns in five seasons, including 13 last season with the Wildcats. He also had back-to-back seasons where he broke the 1,000-yard mark. 

Smith, while not quite as productive, is as versatile as they come, amassing over 3,000 all-purpose yards and 25 touchdowns in his five seasons - one of which was cut to just four games due to injury.
