Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Texans: B.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Texans never addressed wide receiver, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

Haulcy falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In slot 28 they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Christen Miller
No edge and no loss on Christen Miller in the 38th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick59 Rnd2 Blake Miller
No drama and no debate, Blake Miller went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 27. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick69 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
They let A.J. Haulcy come to them and pounced at the 69th overall pick. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick106 Rnd4 Mikail Kamara
Mikail Kamara in pick 106 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick165 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and J'Mari Taylor at pick No. 165 is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick243 Rnd7 Desmond Reid
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Desmond Reid. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick244 Rnd7 Antonio Kite
Antonio Kite slid further than he should have, and No. 244 is lovely value for the cornerback. A minor need, but a need all the same.
