NFLteams don’t need young talent to be serious contenders, but having it helps indicate their potential for long-term success. For the third straight year, the Houston Texans are No. 1 on this list of teams with the most under-25 talent, which is what happens when they trade up to get the top two picks in the draft and take two players who are very young. Quarterback C.J. Stroud and edge rusher Will Anderson Jr., who were both drafted in 2023, are two of the league’s most valuable young players — even with Stroud’s numbers taking a hit last season. A year ago, the Texans were way ahead of everyone else when it came to ranking talent under 25 years old.
