Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Texans and Jackson Jr.: B.

The Texans spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Darrell Jackson Jr., the No. 83 name on the board, in pick 164.

For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. Job largely done: running back settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tate Ratledge
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at the 57th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick89 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams in pick 89 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
They robbed the room for Kevin Winston Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick164 Rnd5 Darrell Jackson Jr.
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Darrell Jackson Jr. in the 164th pick, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick241 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
A running back of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 27 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
