Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA- NeedA- TradesD+ FutureB+
Larceny in pick No. 241 lands the Texans a B, Mafah and all.

When a board-topper like Phil Mafah slides to No. 241, you do not overthink it, and the Texans did not. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In pick 25 they get a No. 1 receiver, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick79 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
They took Ozzy Trapilo at par in No. 79, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
You do not let a wide receiver like Jalen Royals reach slot 89 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick166 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt at pick No. 166 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick236 Rnd7 DJ Giddens
DJ Giddens at Round 7, Pick 20 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick241 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
They robbed the room for Phil Mafah here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
