Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueA+ NeedB+ TradesA- FutureC
The Texans let Tuten fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

The board owed the Texans one, and it paid up: Bhayshul Tuten, the No. 158 name on the board, sitting there at No. 241 like a gift left on the doorstep.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 25th pick they get a bell-cow for the offense, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Somehow Tyler Booker was still sitting there in slot 57, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
You do not let a linebacker like Jalon Walker reach the 58th overall pick and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
They robbed the room for Colston Loveland here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in Round 4, Pick 25 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick241 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten at the Round 7 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
