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

The Texans went off the board in a big way for Zion Logue, 48 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

For all the activity, offensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. Landing Gore Jr. that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the offensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
No edge and no loss on Edgerrin Cooper in slot 42; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick59 Rnd2 Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall at Round 2, Pick 27 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo at the 86th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
Jarvis Brownlee Jr. slipping to the Round 4 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick127 Rnd4 James Williams
By-the-book stuff, James Williams at pick No. 127 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick188 Rnd6 Myles Cole
They went early on Myles Cole in the 188th overall pick, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Zion Logue
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Zion Logue well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick247 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at slot 247 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick252 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
Jalen Coker at the 252nd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
