Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueC NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB+
The Texans turned the phones into found money: B+.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Texans were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Melton. If Washington pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jonathon Brooks
Jonathon Brooks at slot 32 is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick36 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
They paid up for Kris Jenkins at No. 36 when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick76 Rnd3 Malik Washington
Malik Washington at the 76th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick111 Rnd4 Max Melton
Taking Max Melton in the 111th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick128 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
No edge and no loss on Theo Johnson in pick No. 128; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick172 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd in Round 5, Pick 36 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick236 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
A reach for Edefuan Ulofoshio in pick 236; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick245 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
Ryan Watts at the Round 7 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick250 Rnd7 Evan Williams
Evan Williams at pick No. 250 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. It adds depth where they could use a little.
