Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Texans for Warren: B.

Call it larceny. Tyler Warren sat on the board until slot 89, and the Texans did not need to be asked twice. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a load in the middle at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Matthew Golden at slot 58. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick89 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
The board fumbled Tyler Warren all the way to the 89th pick, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
They barely believed it either: Luke Kandra still on the board at pick 126. The roster fit checks out.
Pick165 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
Circle this one: Sonny Styles at the 165th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at No. 241 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
