Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Texans fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

The Texans torched the value chart for Jalen Catalon, taking him 35 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

The Melton pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher and quarterback. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
No drama and no debate, Keon Coleman went about where he belonged in slot 29. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick47 Rnd2 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in No. 47 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick84 Rnd3 Max Melton
A surprising call. With edge rusher and quarterback still to address, they spent pick 84 on Max Melton, a defensive back they were not short of.
Pick88 Rnd3 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in the Round 3 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick95 Rnd3 Junior Colson
They liked Junior Colson enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 95. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick115 Rnd4 Christian Haynes
A premium they did not need to pay, Christian Haynes a notch or two before his time. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick123 Rnd4 Cade Stover
A curious use of pick No. 123. Edge rusher and quarterback needed the pick; a TE-EDGE in Cade Stover did not.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford at the 152nd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jalen Catalon
They talked themselves into Jalen Catalon at pick 166, and the board did not agree. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tre Harris
They barely believed it either: Tre Harris still on the board at Round 6, Pick 27. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick240 Rnd7 Austin Stogner
They went early on Austin Stogner in slot 240, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick254 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in the 254th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
