Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Texans.

Nobody else had Logan Lee anywhere near Round 6, Pick 13. The Texans did, by 22 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

DeJean at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
A quiet steal in slot 42: Cooper DeJean for less than the market said. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick59 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
They paid sticker price for Kiran Amegadjie in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick86 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. in No. 86 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick123 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo in the 123rd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick127 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
By-the-book stuff, Mohamed Kamara at pick 127 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick188 Rnd6 Logan Lee
Logan Lee at Round 6, Pick 13 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
They went early on Tyrice Knight in pick 247, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
