AstroWorldSecurity DRAFTING FOR THETexans

FutureB
A solid, sensible weekend for the Texans: B-. The Texans went off the board in a big way for Francisco Mauigoa, 59 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.
That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Nick Emmanwori
In the 25th overall pick they get an enforcer at safety. More want than need.
Pick58
Rnd2
Harold Fannin Jr.
Fair-plus on Harold Fannin Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick86
Rnd3
Zy Alexander
They jumped the gun on Zy Alexander, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick123
Rnd4
Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. in Round 4, Pick 21 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick125
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Cam Skattebo in slot 125, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick166
Rnd5
Seth McLaughlin
By-the-book stuff, Seth McLaughlin at No. 166 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick171
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
They went early on JJ Pegues in the 171st overall pick, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick175
Rnd5
Kobe King
They barely believed it either: Kobe King still on the board at pick No. 175. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick211
Rnd6
Isaac TeSlaa
A wild overpay on Isaac TeSlaa in Round 6, Pick 35, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick234
Rnd7
Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler at slot 234 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick236
Rnd7
Maxen Hook
They left a pile of value on the table to take Maxen Hook this early at No. 236. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick239
Rnd7
Francisco Mauigoa
This one needs a full-page explanation: Francisco Mauigoa in the Round 7 slot, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick241
Rnd7
Bru McCoy
They reached into another round for Bru McCoy, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
