Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Tyler Warren got past him. The Texans do not have to explain a thing at No. 89.
The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick-by-Pick
In the Round 1 slot they get a run-stuffing presence up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
They read the board right and Matthew Golden was the payoff at the 58th overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Circle this one: Tyler Warren at pick 89 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
They will replay Luke Kandra at the 126th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Oronde Gadsden II in slot 165 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Somehow Jaylen Reed was still sitting there in Round 7, Pick 25, and they pounced on premier safety value. A minor itch, scratched.
