Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Larceny in pick 110 lands the Texans a B+, Orange and all.

The Texans did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Domonique Orange fell into pick No. 110. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The Alijah Vera-Tucker deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

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

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Peter Woods
Peter Woods slid further than he should have, and pick 38 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick54 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
Fair-plus on Gennings Dunker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick59 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
Somehow Anthony Hill Jr. was still sitting there in the 59th pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Eli Stowers in pick No. 68. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick72 Rnd3 Mike Washington Jr.
Mike Washington Jr. in Round 3, Pick 8 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick98 Rnd3 Connor Lew
Connor Lew at the 98th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
Pick106 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
They barely believed it either: Treydan Stukes still on the board at No. 106. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick110 Rnd4 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange at the Round 4 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick114 Rnd4 Skyler Bell
Skyler Bell at Round 4, Pick 14 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
