How did Woody Marks play for the Texans in 2025?

Woody Marks played a key role for the Texans in their backfield last year, but struggled to really take off behind an inconsistent offensive line. Marks wasn’t great, averaging less than four yards per carry, while catching 24 passes on the year. He’ll now be in a reserve role behind David Montgomery this offseason, whom the Texans traded Juice Scruggs, a fourth-round pick, and a seventh-round pick for.

Who did the Dolphins draft with the 2025 NFL Draft pick from the Texans?

The Dolphins ended up taking a running back, as well, at No. 179 overall, selecting Oklahoma State’s Ollie Gordon.

Who did the Dolphins draft with the 2026 NFL Draft pick from the Texans?

That pick from the Texans became number 90 overall. When it is made, we will update with the selection.

**How has the trade for Woody Marks fared for the Texans?**

This is an interesting one, especially from a value perspective. On the Jimmy Johnson trade chart, the Texans overpaid with the value of the No. 101 overall pick, which would be a late third-round compensatory pick. The Chase Stuart draft chart also clearly favors the Dolphins side, but you do have to factor in the part that it’s a future draft pick that Houston moved. Gordon, on the other hand, was in a reserve role behind De’Von Achane and was quite inefficient as well. Gordon averaged less than three yards a tote on 70 carries, and never really had a consistent role. Overall, the bold trade will depend on if Marks pans out, given what Caserio gave up to trade for him. At the moment, though, the deal wasn’t great for Houston from a value or a production perspective. Share your thoughts in the comments.
