jaytex DRAFTING FOR THETexans
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Texans
Overall
B-
ValueC+

TradesB-
FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Texans: B-. If confidence were a draft strategy, the Texans would have aced it. Collin Oliver at pick No. 241 is 49 spots clear of where he belonged. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.
They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Walter Nolen
In the 25th overall pick they get a load in the middle. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58
Rnd2
Cameron Williams
A premium they did not need to pay, Cameron Williams a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick79
Rnd3
Isaiah Bond
A clean, defensible pick in slot 79 with a little surplus value in Isaiah Bond. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick89
Rnd3
Miles Frazier
A real head-scratcher, Miles Frazier in the 89th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick166
Rnd5
Raheim Sanders
They paid up for Raheim Sanders at No. 166 when waiting would have done the job. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick236
Rnd7
Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in pick 236 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick241
Rnd7
Collin Oliver
A big swing on Collin Oliver at the 241st overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
