No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Texans.

2025 NFL Draft
· 6 picks
· 1 steals
· 4 reaches
They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Tyler Cooper, 79 picks early at Round 3, Pick 25.
A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. The Tuten value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
A wild overpay on Kaleb Johnson in No. 25, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
A tidy little value on Trey Amos in pick No. 58, a step better than break-even. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
They reached into another round for Tyler Cooper, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Nazir Stackhouse in Round 4, Pick 26 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
They read the board right and Bhayshul Tuten was the payoff at the Round 5 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
They went early on Rayuan Lane III in pick 243, and the value did not follow. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
