Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans let Bertrand fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. JD Bertrand tumbling to the Texans in Round 7, Pick 27 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Reaching for Rosengarten left real value on the table behind him.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They paid sticker price for Keon Coleman in the 42nd overall pick, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick59 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac at pick No. 59 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick86 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
They took Bucky Irving at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick123 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer at Round 4, Pick 23 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at slot 127 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick188 Rnd6 Ro Torrence
Ro Torrence is a better player than the 188th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick247 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
You do not let a linebacker like JD Bertrand reach pick 247 and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
