Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Simpson is the plan now, and the Texans grade out a B-.

Start where it matters. The Texans took Ty Simpson to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Peterson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Ty Simpson
In pick 14 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 Nyck Harbor
Nyck Harbor in pick No. 43 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick45 Rnd2 Connor Lew
They paid sticker price for Connor Lew in slot 45, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick68 Rnd3 Sam Leavitt
No edge and no loss on Sam Leavitt in Round 3, Pick 4; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
No drama and no debate, Domani Jackson went about where he belonged in the 111th pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick113 Rnd4 Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch at the Round 4 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick154 Rnd5 David Oke
David Oke in No. 154 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick227 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
They took Trey Zuhn III at par in the 227th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick236 Rnd7 A'Marion Peterson
They talked themselves into A'Marion Peterson at pick 236, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
