The Texans land in the muddy middle: C-. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Texans took Trey Holly at slot 7, roughly 313 spots before his name belonged. It lands right in the middle: a C-, no more, no less.
They banked enough surplus on Wright to cover a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up.
The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.
Pick Analysis
Pick7
Rnd1
Trey Holly
In slot 7 they get an every-down engine for the run game, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick59
Rnd2
Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange at the 59th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69
Rnd3
Seth McGowan
A wild overpay on Seth McGowan in the 69th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick106
Rnd4
Devin Moore
The board fumbled Devin Moore all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick128
Rnd4
Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings in Round 4, Pick 28 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick165
Rnd5
Mason Reiger
Mason Reiger at pick 165 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick243
Rnd7
Dae'Quan Wright
A tight end of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick244
Rnd7
Logan Taylor
A big swing on Logan Taylor at pick 244, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
