Good, not great, for the Texans: B. There is a lot to like until you notice edge rusher is still a hole. The Texans never got to the one that mattered most.
That Royals pick is the receipt they will wave around later. If Buchanan pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup weapon at tight end at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick58
Rnd2
Kaleb Johnson
They read the board right and Kaleb Johnson was the payoff at No. 58. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick79
Rnd3
Jalen Royals
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jalen Royals in the 79th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick89
Rnd3
Tai Felton
They went early on Tai Felton in Round 3, Pick 25, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick166
Rnd5
Chase Lundt
A straight-up fair deal on Chase Lundt at the 166th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick236
Rnd7
Carson Vinson
No edge and no loss on Carson Vinson in slot 236; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241
Rnd7
Teddye Buchanan
They paid up for Teddye Buchanan at pick 241 when waiting would have done the job. The roster fit checks out.
