Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans robbed the room for Bisontis. Final grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Chase Bisontis got past him. The Texans do not have to explain a thing at pick No. 106.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Job largely done: running back settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In No. 28 they get a three-down second-level presence, outstanding value to boot.
Pick38 Rnd2 Carnell Tate
You do not let a wide receiver like Carnell Tate reach pick 38 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick59 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Caleb Banks at slot 59 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick69 Rnd3 D'Angelo Ponds
D'Angelo Ponds at the Round 3 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick106 Rnd4 Chase Bisontis
They barely believed it either: Chase Bisontis still on the board at Round 4, Pick 6. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick141 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
A slide stopped in pick No. 141, with Oscar Delp worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick167 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
A reasonable price with a little left over, Beau Stephens in the 167th overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jaydn Ott
A clean, defensible pick in the 243rd pick with a little surplus value in Jaydn Ott. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
