Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureD-
Nobody dealt better than the Texans this weekend: B.

The Texans torched the value chart for Julius Welschof, taking him 155 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Baker. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In the 23rd pick they get a double-digit-sack hope, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick No. 24 they get a weapon on the perimeter, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick25 Rnd1 JC Latham
In No. 25 they get a blindside protector at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
They will replay Quinyon Mitchell at slot 59 for years; that is how good the value is. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick86 Rnd3 Trey Benson
The board fumbled Trey Benson all the way to the 86th overall pick, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick87 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 24: Malachi Corley for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick124 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
They liked Cedric Gray enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 4, Pick 24. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Renardo Green
They reached a country mile for Renardo Green at the 128th overall pick, and the board is aghast. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick236 Rnd7 Javon Baker
Javon Baker at No. 236 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick245 Rnd7 Julius Welschof
They reached into another round for Julius Welschof, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick250 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
Tanner McLachlan at pick 250 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
