When a board-topper like Andrew Mukuba slides to slot 126, you do not overthink it, and the Texans did not. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.
Reaching for Griffith left real value on the table behind him. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.
They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 25th pick they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Nice patience on Tyler Warren, who had no business lasting to Round 2, Pick 26. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Luke Kandra at pick 89 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Andrew Mukuba in slot 126 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Sonny Styles in No. 165 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Thor Griffith at pick No. 241 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
