Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesD FutureA+
The Texans let Rice fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Brenden Rice, the 158th pick, roughly 67 picks past where he belonged. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick73 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
Value with a capital V on Mekhi Wingo in the 73rd overall pick, a genuine coup. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jermaine Burton
Jermaine Burton in the Round 4 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick124 Rnd4 Troy Fautanu
They did well to land Troy Fautanu in Round 4, Pick 24, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick127 Rnd4 Adonai Mitchell
They barely believed it either: Adonai Mitchell still on the board at pick No. 127. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick154 Rnd5 Reuben Fatheree II
Reuben Fatheree II at the 154th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick158 Rnd5 Brenden Rice
A wide receiver of that caliber at No. 158 is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
