Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans robbed the room for Schwesinger. Final grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Carson Schwesinger, the 235th overall pick, roughly 97 picks past where he belonged.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In pick 19 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value.
Pick55 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Somehow Derrick Harmon was still sitting there in Round 2, Pick 23, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick88 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm in the 88th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick120 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in pick No. 120 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in slot 125 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jaeden Roberts
They did well to land Jaeden Roberts in No. 164, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick170 Rnd5 Devin Neal
They robbed the room for Devin Neal here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick173 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at the 173rd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick210 Rnd6 Ricky White III
Value with a capital V on Ricky White III in No. 210, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick235 Rnd7 Carson Schwesinger
They barely believed it either: Carson Schwesinger still on the board at pick 235. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
