Draft Grade — Texans
Overall
B
ValueB
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Texans. The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named wide receiver, a need the Texans walked right past. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
The Coleman reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The McDonald pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Peter Woods
In the Round 1 slot they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39
Rnd2
Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman at the 39th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick46
Rnd2
Kayden McDonald
Kayden McDonald at Round 2, Pick 14 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
