The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named wide receiver, a need the Texans walked right past. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

Johnson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Job largely done: running back settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Derrick Harmon · DT · rank 29
In the 25th overall pick they get a load in the middle. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Kaleb Johnson · RB · rank 43
Kaleb Johnson at slot 58 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.25 · Pick 89 · Elijah Arroyo · TE · rank 75
Nice patience on Elijah Arroyo, who had no business lasting to Round 3, Pick 25. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R4.26 · Pick 127 · Shemar Turner · DL · rank 123
Nothing to complain about; Shemar Turner went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.28 · Pick 167 · Joshua Gray · OG · rank 169
Joshua Gray in the 167th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
