Draft Grade — Texans
Overall

FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Texans, and a B to prove it. The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named edge rusher, a need the Texans walked right past.
Getting Ferguson where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Tyler Booker
In pick 30 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value.
Pick33
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
A clean, defensible pick in the 33rd pick with a little surplus value in Emeka Egbuka. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick66
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at No. 94 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick127
Rnd4
Terrance Ferguson
A tidy bit of business in slot 127, where Terrance Ferguson graded well above the range. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick131
Rnd4
Ty Hamilton
Ty Hamilton in the 131st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick155
Rnd5
Trevor Etienne
Fair-plus on Trevor Etienne, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
