With less than a month to go until the 2014 NFL Draft, the Houston Texans are still exploring everyone of their options for the top overall pick, and they will make sure that they get a good look at every top prospect, and that will include Buffalo linebacker Khalil Mack who will visit with the team and coaching staff next week.

As of right now, the Texans have been expected to take either one of the top three signal callers available, or the top overall defensive prospect, Jadeveon Clowney.
However, there have been a few draft insiders already that have pointed toward Mack as being right up there with the few others being considered for the top pick by the Texans, so it’s no surprise that they want to get a good look at the former MAC star.
Last season, Mack recorded 100 total tackles, including 19 for loss with 10.5 sacks, having many bill him as the top defensive player in the country for 2013. Despite the criticisms of him playing in a smaller conference, he has convinced everyone so far in the pre-draft process that he can play with the best of them.
