The Texans did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Cam Skattebo fell into pick No. 241.

Every board in the league had Capehart lower, and that gap is the story. The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Tate Ratledge · OG · rank 31
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. A real need, handled.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Jalon Walker · LB · rank 22
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jalon Walker in pick 58, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R3.25 · Pick 89 · DeMonte Capehart · DT · rank 147
DeMonte Capehart in the 89th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R4.25 · Pick 126 · Oronde Gadsden II · TE · rank 128
No drama and no debate, Oronde Gadsden II went about where he belonged in slot 126. A need, and now a little less of one.
R5.28 · Pick 165 · Lathan Ransom · S · rank 101
A safety of that caliber at pick No. 165 is the definition of value, full stop. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R7.25 · Pick 241 · Cam Skattebo · RB · rank 109
The board fumbled Cam Skattebo all the way to No. 241, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
