Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Texans and Gordon II: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Ollie Gordon II, the No. 159 name on the board, stolen at slot 241. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Capehart pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Booker
In the Round 1 slot they get a building block for the line, reach and all.
Pick58 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in pick No. 58 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
Pick89 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Somehow Xavier Watts was still sitting there in the 89th pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick126 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
They reached into another round for DeMonte Capehart, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick165 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
You do not let a safety like Sonny Styles reach Round 5, Pick 28 and blink. They did not. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick241 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
They barely believed it either: Ollie Gordon II still on the board at No. 241. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
