WATCH: Best Alabama highlights from Texans DE Will Anderson

The Houston Texans shocked the NFL by trading up to the third overall pick to take Alabama defensive end Will Anderson, who many argue is the best defensive player in the draft.

Fans’ opinions about the compensation for the third-pick may vary. Still, Anderson’s talent is undeniable, and his film from Tuscaloosa backs up the hype that made him worth a king’s ransom.

The premier edge rusher in this class, the Texans have secured a high-floor high-ceiling defensive cornerstone that should benefit the franchise for years to come.
