Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Texans: B-.

There is a lot to like until you notice edge rusher is still a hole. The Texans never got to the one that mattered most.

They will need Iheanachor to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The Hurst value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Job largely done: running back settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Max Iheanachor
In No. 28 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick38 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
By-the-book stuff, Caleb Banks at the 38th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jadarian Price
They took Jadarian Price at par in slot 59, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick69 Rnd3 Keylan Rutledge
Keylan Rutledge in pick 69 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Ted Hurst
They let Ted Hurst come to them and pounced at the Round 4 slot. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
