OT - 36%

CB - 14%
G - 9 %
C - 7 %
Round 2
-------------------
CB - 25%
WR - 22%
S - 17%
G - 15%
OT - 14%
Round 3
-------------------
RB - 38%
CB - 14%
G - 13%
WR - 11%
S - 9 %
All percentages rounded down. Keep in mind, our needs changed through free agency and some big boards would list a player at different positions. Dalton Risner, for example, would be listed on some boards as OT, some had him as G and a few had him at C.
So, while the data is interesting, it comes with a few caveats. However, if you're drafting for the Texans, your most likely top of the draft was:
1st - OT
2A - CB
2B - WR
3rd - RB

So how much did you and I affect the numbers? I think my drafts usually were OT, CB, or OG in the 1st. OT, CB or OG in the 2nd. OT or CB in the 3rd.
And that is why it amazes me when I see a mock not addressing OL in the top four picks.
I saw the email discussing these number and now I am glad I waited for them to be posted here. Thank you for posting the highlights for us.
