Powerful DRAFTING FOR THETexans

The Texans cashed the board's mistake on Skattebo: B. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Cam Skattebo, the No. 110 name on the board, stolen at No. 241. No fireworks, but a solid B.
Reaching for Jackson left real value on the table behind him. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
Tetairoa McMillan in No. 25 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick58
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at pick 58 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick89
Rnd3
Armand Membou
Steal is underselling it; Armand Membou at the Round 3 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick126
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
Circle this one: Kevin Winston Jr. at the 126th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick165
Rnd5
Danny Stutsman
Taking Danny Stutsman in slot 165 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick241
Rnd7
Cam Skattebo
They will replay Cam Skattebo at pick No. 241 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
