Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The phones sank the Texans this weekend: D-.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Texans did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. The math is unkind, and the D- follows.

The Williams pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with tight end and linebacker still on the board. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Haynes has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and tight end is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In the 30th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
They paid sticker price for Chris Braswell in slot 36, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick58 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
By-the-book stuff, T'Vondre Sweat at the 58th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
A reach for Christian Haynes in Round 3, Pick 2; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick73 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 3 slot with a little surplus value in Javon Bullard. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick90 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A conviction pick on Zak Zinter at pick No. 90 that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick123 Rnd4 Javon Foster
The board had cheaper options than Javon Foster at No. 123, and it noticed. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126 Rnd4 James Williams
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, James Williams adds a safety and leaves tight end and linebacker untouched.
Pick167 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
A tidy little value on Jaylen Wright in the Round 5 slot, a step better than break-even. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick176 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in No. 176 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
