FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Texans. The one they had to fix is still broken. The Texans left running back untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.
A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly. Every board in the league had Slaughter lower, and that gap is the story.
Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 1 of 8 of the wish list covered.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis

Jake Slaughter
In the 15th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line, though they paid up to get him.
