More right than wrong for the Texans, and a B to prove it.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Chop Robinson tumbling to the Texans in Round 2, Pick 10 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

Lee has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. A whole weekend of picks and offensive lineman is somehow still a want.

Job largely done: running back settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but offensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Circle this one: Chop Robinson at the Round 2 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at No. 59 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Javon Baker
Javon Baker in the 86th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick123 Rnd4 Josh Newton
No edge and no loss on Josh Newton in pick 123; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick127 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
By-the-book stuff, Isaac Guerendo at slot 127 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick188 Rnd6 Logan Lee
A wild overpay on Logan Lee in Round 6, Pick 13, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
A conviction pick on Tyler Owens at the 247th pick that the board grades a round light. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
