Texans' D'Onta Foreman: Picked by Houston

The Texans selected Foreman in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft, 89th overall.

Analysis:

Foreman (6-foot, 233 pounds) is a big running back with excellent speed, breaking into the 4.4-second range at the Texas pro day, and he'll be a very nice off-the-bench piece behind Lamar Miller. If Miller's durability troubles persist, Foreman will prove a far superior backup than the recent likes of Alfred Blue or Jonathan Grimes. After running for 2,700 yards (6.5 YPC) and 20 touchdowns in 21 games at Texas, Foreman makes for a fine dynasty asset and could be a worthwhile handcuff in some redraft scenarios.
