Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in Round 7, Pick 27 lands the Texans a B, Gordon II and all.

Thirty-one other rooms let Ollie Gordon II slide, and the Texans were the ones holding the card at pick 241. Highway robbery.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In No. 25 they get a wrecking ball inside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at the 57th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Donovan Jackson at slot 89 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
They will replay Kevin Winston Jr. at pick 126 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick164 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
You do not let a safety like Billy Bowman Jr. reach Round 5, Pick 26 and blink. They did not. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick241 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
They robbed the room for Ollie Gordon II here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
