The Houston Texans recently traded for former Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon and then extended him. So, you wouldn't think of the position as one of the Texans' bigger needs, but it is.
They don't have great depth at the position. If Mixon were to go down, they would be in a heap of trouble. So, it's a safe bet that the Texans could draft a running back.
Where they take one is a different story, but we know they are interested in drafting the position. We know that because they are already looking at a few guys.
According to Tony Pauline of SportsKeeda, the Texans are scheduled to have a top-30 visit with Louisville RB Isaac Guerendo, one of the more interesting prospects at the position in the draft.

The Texans would have much better depth than they currently have if they drafted Guerendo.
