You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Texans did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. The final tally is a middling C.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Milum.
The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.
Pick-by-Pick
In No. 17 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
They barely believed it either: Wyatt Milum still on the board at the Round 2 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Jordan Burch at pick No. 89 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Jeffrey Bassa at slot 127 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
