Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans cashed the board's mistake on Hopper: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Ty'Ron Hopper tumbling to the Texans in the 224th pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Clark has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Job largely done: running back settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A slide stopped in slot 59, with Edgerrin Cooper worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick86 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kris Abrams-Draine at No. 86 is the proof. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick123 Rnd4 Renardo Green
Renardo Green at pick No. 123 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick127 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Isaac Guerendo in the 127th pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick224 Rnd7 Ty'Ron Hopper
They robbed the room for Ty'Ron Hopper here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick238 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Joshua Cephus. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick247 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
They left a pile of value on the table to take De'Corian Clark this early at pick 247. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
