Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Texans and Carter: D.

The Texans put a flag in the ground for Kevin Jennings, 59 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.

Carter at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick 11 they get a workhorse for the backfield, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick22 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a blindside protector at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick31 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick42 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Circle this one: Nick Emmanwori at the 42nd pick is a fall that decides a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick53 Rnd2 Mike Green
Mike Green at Round 2, Pick 21 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jahdae Barron
Taking Jahdae Barron in the 56th pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick63 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Good price on Tyler Warren in the Round 2 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in pick 87 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick123 Rnd4 Deone Walker
They paid up for Deone Walker at slot 123 when waiting would have done the job. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick166 Rnd5 Kevin Jennings
They reached a country mile for Kevin Jennings at the 166th overall pick, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick238 Rnd7 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter at No. 238 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
