The Texans bet big and early on Trey Moore, 45 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Job largely done: running back settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.28 · Pick 28 · Kenyon Sadiq · TE · rank 17
In pick 28 they get a moveable chess piece at tight end, and a steal at that.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Blake Miller · OT · rank 46
They liked Blake Miller enough to skip the value, taking him in the 38th overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
R2.27 · Pick 59 · Gennings Dunker · OG · rank 52
Gennings Dunker at Round 2, Pick 27 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The roster fit checks out.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Lee Hunter · DT · rank 49
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Lee Hunter in No. 69, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.6 · Pick 106 · Skyler Bell · WR · rank 85
You do not let a wide receiver like Skyler Bell reach pick No. 106 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.32 · Pick 132 · Kaytron Allen · RB · rank 148
Kaytron Allen at the 132nd pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R4.36 · Pick 136 · Drew Allar · QB · rank 157
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Drew Allar. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R5.1 · Pick 141 · Trey Moore · LB-EDGE · rank 186
Value said wait; Trey Moore in the 141st pick says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
