Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans kept it disciplined and banked a B.

The Texans bet big and early on Evan Link, 39 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. The Lindsey pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Cam Coleman
In slot 7 they get a go-to option on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick71 Rnd3 Quincy Rhodes Jr.
They paid a round early for Quincy Rhodes Jr. in the 71st overall pick, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick109 Rnd4 LJ Martin
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on LJ Martin. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick189 Rnd6 Drake Lindsey
Drake Lindsey slipping to pick 189 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick197 Rnd6 Sebastian Cheeks
They did well to land Sebastian Cheeks in pick No. 197, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick242 Rnd7 Evan Link
They reached into another round for Evan Link, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
