Grand theft in pick No. 127: the Texans steal Hart and grade out a B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Cam Hart tumbling to the Texans in the Round 4 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Texans indulged a want in Hart while a need in edge rusher, offensive lineman and other spots stayed open.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in slot 42 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick59 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
They robbed the room for Troy Franklin here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil is a better player than the 86th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick123 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
A straight-up fair deal on Isaac Guerendo at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick127 Rnd4 Cam Hart
A surprising call. With edge rusher, offensive lineman and other spots still to address, they spent the 127th pick on Cam Hart, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick188 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson in No. 188 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
They went early on Tyler Owens in pick 247, and the value did not follow. A minor itch, scratched.
