Grand theft in pick No. 236: the Texans steal Monangai and grade out a B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Kyle Monangai, the No. 211 name on the board, stolen at the 236th pick.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They are betting Wilson proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick No. 25 they get a matchup weapon at tight end, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
They took Jayden Higgins at par in No. 58, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick79 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They jumped the gun on Charles Grant, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at pick 89 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick166 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
They barely believed it either: Pat Bryant still on the board at Round 5, Pick 28. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick236 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Kyle Monangai in the Round 7 slot, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick241 Rnd7 Dante Trader Jr.
They read the board right and Dante Trader Jr. was the payoff at the 241st overall pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
