Draft Grade — Texans
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the Texans.

The rest of the league had time to spare on J. Michael Sturdivant; the Texans did not wait, grabbing him 51 spots ahead at slot 165.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. King at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

If Emmanuel Pregnon and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Emmanuel Pregnon
In No. 28 they get an anchor for the offensive line, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Isaiah World
Value said wait; Isaiah World in pick No. 38 says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick62 Rnd2 Darrell Jackson Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Darrell Jackson Jr. in Round 2, Pick 30 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick69 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Zakee Wheatley in pick 69 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jaishawn Barham
A straight-up fair deal on Jaishawn Barham at the 106th pick, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick108 Rnd4 Logan Jones
They talked themselves into Logan Jones at the 108th overall pick, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
They took DeMonte Capehart at par in the 128th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165 Rnd5 J. Michael Sturdivant
They reached into another round for J. Michael Sturdivant, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick243 Rnd7 Micah Morris
They paid sticker price for Micah Morris in slot 243, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick244 Rnd7 Noah Thomas
Noah Thomas at Round 7, Pick 28 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick246 Rnd7 Haynes King
Haynes King in No. 246 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A need, and now a little less of one.
