    Lots of good value still on the board like LaMichael James too. I hope the Texans fill out their roster with good football players. Don't miss with these picks.

    Randle might still be there, also looks like we might take a flyer on someone with all those 4th rounders maybe Streeter or a Qb

    For just 10 spots in a draft with no obvious wants on the board, we made an irrelevant player (7th rounder) into someone with potential (4th rounder).

    So now we have 5 picks for today.

    68th, 76th, 99th, 121st, and 126th.

    Anyone think Randle will be there at 68?

    They need potentially two WRs, Wade has said he wants another Dlineman and they need OLineman depth.

    This really gives them freedom to take risks on numerous guys and up their odds on landing an unheralded gem at WR, G, or T. Maybe even TE or CB.

    I wish I were more versed - anyone know if there are mobile interior linemen that are going to go late because of size issues?

    Some of y'all are complaining just to complain. There are no other receivers that they value at 58, so trade back, collect more picks, and go for someone at 68. This isn't the NBA, there are 5 more rounds after this.

    Don't forget they can still trade back up with 2 of those picks.

    Quit your whining. It was a good trade.

    Yeah, that's what I figure as well. Prioritize with a receiver and then pick up one or two linesmen on the offensive side and secondary players. Never hurts to pick up some project players your FO has had their eye on in the middle rounds when you have so many picks to spend.

    There are players on the board still who can impact a game, even in limited snaps. The Texans can still potentially get 2-4 players who impact a game.

    That they didn't want Messie or Randle is telling about their draft board
