Grand theft in pick 241: the Texans steal Mickens and grade out a B.

The board owed the Texans one, and it paid up: R.J. Mickens, the No. 214 name on the board, sitting there at the 241st overall pick like a gift left on the doorstep. No fireworks, but a solid B.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a red-zone target to build around at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson at the 58th pick is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick79 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
They read the board right and Donovan Jackson was the payoff at slot 79. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick89 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
They did well to land Ozzy Trapilo in No. 89, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick166 Rnd5 Nick Nash
Nick Nash in pick No. 166 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick236 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Fair-plus on Isaac TeSlaa, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick241 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
Somehow R.J. Mickens was still sitting there in Round 7, Pick 25, and they pounced on premier safety value. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
