Houston’s young interior plug with room to pop
Joshua Diaz is a 6-foot-1, 260-pound sophomore defensive lineman from Houston who was a notable high-school tackler at Shadow Creek, but he did not play in the 2024 season, so the appeal is mostly projection right now. In the 2024 season, Houston listed him on the roster but gave no game action, which suggests he’s still developing into his college role. If your team wants a local, physical DL with upside rather than instant production, Diaz is a work-in-progress worth watching.
