Texans did a great job on their first two picks - #68 and #80 getting Justin Reid and Martinas Rankin, but dropped the ball with the 98th.
Seems they were going BPA which also happened to fill needs, but then made a pretty big reach to get Aikens at 98. There were so many good players still on the board at this point and they could have justified any of them - Da'Shawn Hand DT, (ranked about 50th), Quenton Meeks CB (mid 50's), Deon Cain WR, (Mid to late 50's), Ogbonnia Okoronkwo and Josh Sweat OLB/Edge (60-65) and even Josey Jewel ILB (70).
All these selections could be justified and work for us.
Let's hope the Texans put their game day caps back on and get some more value with the rest of these picks - starting with #103 tomorrow - another very important pick with so many good players still on the board in this very deep draft.
