Larceny in slot 241 lands the Texans a B, Tuten and all.

Somebody in the 241st pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Texans sat still while Bhayshul Tuten, the No. 156 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick25 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka

In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.

Pick58 Rnd2 Colston Loveland

They will replay Colston Loveland at the 58th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.

Pick89 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild

Dylan Fairchild at the Round 3 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.

Pick126 Rnd4 Darius Alexander

No drama and no debate, Darius Alexander went about where he belonged in pick No. 126. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.

Pick165 Rnd5 Sonny Styles

A top-tier safety at a bargain, Sonny Styles in the 165th overall pick, plain and simple. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
