Powerful DRAFTING FOR THETexans

Grand theft in the 241st overall pick: the Texans steal Tuten and grade out a B-. Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Bhayshul Tuten got past him. The Texans do not have to explain a thing at the 241st pick.
They are betting Jackson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Tyler Warren
In No. 25 they get a matchup weapon at tight end, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick58
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Donovan Jackson well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick89
Rnd3
Tate Ratledge
The board had Tate Ratledge higher than the 89th overall pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. The roster fit checks out.
Pick126
Rnd4
Darius Alexander
They took Darius Alexander at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick165
Rnd5
Billy Bowman Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Billy Bowman Jr. at pick No. 165 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick241
Rnd7
Bhayshul Tuten
They barely believed it either: Bhayshul Tuten still on the board at slot 241. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
