Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans let Tuten fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Somebody in slot 241 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Texans sat still while Bhayshul Tuten, the No. 158 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. The roster is better shaped than it was, with running back chief among the fixes.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
They paid sticker price for Kenneth Grant in pick 25, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick57 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Tyler Booker in the 57th pick, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They read the board right and Andrew Mukuba was the payoff at the 89th overall pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick126 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
Circle this one: Barrett Carter at Round 4, Pick 25 is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts in No. 164 is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in pick No. 241 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
