Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueA+ NeedB+ TradesA- FutureC
Grand theft in pick No. 241: the Texans steal Tuten and grade out a B+.

Call it larceny. Bhayshul Tuten sat on the board until No. 241, and the Texans did not need to be asked twice. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick No. 25 they get a workhorse for the backfield, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Taking Kenneth Grant in the 57th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick58 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in the 58th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick89 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Circle this one: Colston Loveland at the Round 3 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in pick 126 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick241 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
Somehow Bhayshul Tuten was still sitting there in No. 241, and they pounced on premier running back value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
