ValueC NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Texans to a F.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Texans did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Hairston has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

The Trevon Diggs pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 1 of 8 of the wish list covered.

About as rough as a weekend gets on paper, with running back still staring back at them.

Pick Analysis
Pick58 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
They paid a round early for Maxwell Hairston in the 58th pick, more than the board wanted. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in slot 89 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
