The Texans did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Mason Taylor fell into the 241st overall pick. The bottom line is a respectable B.
That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Booker has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.
Pick-by-Pick
In No. 25 they get a cornerstone up front, even if it was a touch early.
Tyleik Williams in pick No. 57 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Jalon Walker at Round 3, Pick 25 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Andrew Mukuba in pick 126 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Devin Neal at the 164th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
They robbed the room for Mason Taylor here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
