Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Rakestraw Jr. should have been long gone. The Texans pounced, and earned a B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Ennis Rakestraw Jr., No. 94, roughly 56 picks past where he belonged.

The Wiley pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
Jonathon Brooks at the 37th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick39 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
The board had cheaper options than T'Vondre Sweat at slot 39, and it noticed. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick86 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
They will replay Xavier Worthy at pick 86 for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94 Rnd3 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in No. 94 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick128 Rnd4 Christian Jones
They went early on Christian Jones in the 128th pick, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick139 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
A reach on Tykee Smith in the Round 5 slot; the board had better options right there. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jared Wiley
They reached a country mile for Jared Wiley at pick No. 148, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick176 Rnd6 Khristian Boyd
No drama and no debate, Khristian Boyd went about where he belonged in Round 6, Pick 1. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick183 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at No. 183 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
