Larceny in No. 120 lands the Texans a B, Moore and all. The Texans did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Devin Moore fell into the Round 4 slot. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.
Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick38
Rnd2
Christen Miller
A straight-up fair deal on Christen Miller at slot 38, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick52
Rnd2
Emmanuel Pregnon
A quiet steal in pick 52: Emmanuel Pregnon for less than the market said. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick59
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
The board had Jake Slaughter higher than the 59th pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It fills a real need, too.
Pick69
Rnd3
Gennings Dunker
Gennings Dunker in Round 3, Pick 5 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick106
Rnd4
Emmett Johnson
Emmett Johnson slipping to the Round 4 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick120
Rnd4
Devin Moore
The board fumbled Devin Moore all the way to the 120th overall pick, and they scooped it up. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick128
Rnd4
Jalon Kilgore
Value with a capital V on Jalon Kilgore in pick No. 128, a genuine coup. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick165
Rnd5
Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol at No. 165 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169
Rnd5
Keagen Trost
A slide stopped in the 169th pick, with Keagen Trost worth more than the price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick210
Rnd6
Nate Boerkircher
Circle this one: Nate Boerkircher at slot 210 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick243
Rnd7
Zxavian Harris
Taking Zxavian Harris in Round 7, Pick 27 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick244
Rnd7
Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson at the 244th overall pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
