Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D-
ValueF NeedA- TradesD FutureC-
Not the weekend the Texans were hoping for: D-.

The tape said wait; the Texans did not. Peny Boone went at No. 79, a good 324 picks before the board was ready. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D-.

Getting Castro where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Ollie Gordon II
In the Round 1 slot they get a three-down runner, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick58 Rnd2 Thor Griffith
They left a pile of value on the table to take Thor Griffith this early at the 58th overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick79 Rnd3 Peny Boone
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Peny Boone. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick89 Rnd3 Karene Reid
This one needs a full-page explanation: Karene Reid in slot 89, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
Pick166 Rnd5 Torricelli Simpkins III
They reached a country mile for Torricelli Simpkins III at No. 166, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick236 Rnd7 Ricky White III
A slide stopped in pick No. 236, with Ricky White III worth more than the price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick241 Rnd7 Sebastian Castro
They will replay Sebastian Castro at the 241st overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A minor need, but a need all the same.
