FutureB-
The Texans did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. The Blake Miller pick is the one that will follow the Texans into the fall. They took him 21 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.
Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On value alone, Coleman makes the weekend a net positive.
The roster is better shaped than it was, with running back chief among the fixes.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Jeremiyah Love
In No. 17 they get an every-down engine for the run game at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34
Rnd2
Christen Miller
Christen Miller slid further than he should have, and pick No. 34 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick48
Rnd2
Olaivavega Ioane
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Olaivavega Ioane. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick66
Rnd3
Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman at Round 3, Pick 2 is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick114
Rnd4
Blake Miller
A big swing on Blake Miller at slot 114, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick157
Rnd5
Terrance Carter Jr.
Good price on Terrance Carter Jr. in the 157th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick230
Rnd7
Trebor Pena
A quiet steal in pick 230: Trebor Pena for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick238
Rnd7
Jalon Daniels
A slide stopped in the 238th overall pick, with Jalon Daniels worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
