Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Texans, and a B to prove it.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but John Williams at No. 236 is 30 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. The bottom line is a respectable B.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. McMillan at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

Job largely done: running back settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a matchup problem out wide at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson slid further than he should have, and the Round 2 slot is lovely value for the running back. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick79 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor slipping to slot 79 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick89 Rnd3 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner in pick No. 89 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick166 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
They took Chase Lundt at par in the 166th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick236 Rnd7 John Williams
They reached into another round for John Williams, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick241 Rnd7 Desmond Watson
Value with a capital V on Desmond Watson in slot 241, a genuine coup. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
