Houston Texans

A solid, sensible weekend for the Texans: B-.

Future B-

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Texans never addressed wide receiver, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They will need Banks to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it. Their trades came out a wash either way.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.31 · Pick 31 · Caleb Banks · DL · rank 41
In pick No. 31 they get a disruptive interior force, reach and all. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Max Iheanachor · OT · rank 46
Max Iheanachor at Round 2, Pick 6 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A need, and now a little less of one.
R2.27 · Pick 59 · Jonah Coleman · RB · rank 66
They paid sticker price for Jonah Coleman in the 59th pick, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Chase Bisontis · OG · rank 70
Chase Bisontis in slot 69 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
