Larceny in Round 3, Pick 23 lands the Texans a B-, Wilson and all.

Thirty-one other rooms let Payton Wilson slide, and the Texans were the ones holding the card at pick No. 86. Highway robbery.

They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with running back the one that mattered most.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They took Tyler Nubin at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick59 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
They paid sticker price for Braden Fiske in the 59th overall pick, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick86 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Circle this one: Payton Wilson at pick 86 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
They read the board right and Jarvis Brownlee Jr. was the payoff at Round 4, Pick 23. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick127 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
No drama and no debate, Isaac Guerendo went about where he belonged in slot 127. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick188 Rnd6 Tip Reiman
Tip Reiman at pick No. 188 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick247 Rnd7 Donovan Jennings
A slide stopped in the 247th pick, with Donovan Jennings worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
