Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Texans: B-.

There is a lot to like until you notice wide receiver is still a hole. The Texans never got to the one that mattered most. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Reaching for Banks left real value on the table behind him. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Caleb Banks
In slot 28 they get an anchor for the defensive front, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon at pick 38 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman in Round 2, Pick 27 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
