Overall B

ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-

The Texans cashed the board's mistake on Tuten: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Bhayshul Tuten had no business being available in No. 241, and the Texans did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with running back the one that mattered most. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick25 Rnd1 Walter Nolen

In the 25th overall pick they get a wrecking ball inside at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.

Pick57 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow

They paid sticker price for Marcus Mbow in No. 57, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.

Pick89 Rnd3 Xavier Watts

Xavier Watts in slot 89 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.

Pick126 Rnd4 Barrett Carter

Somehow Barrett Carter was still sitting there in pick 126, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A need, and now a little less of one.

Pick164 Rnd5 Eli Stowers

Eli Stowers at the 164th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
