Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans let Tuten fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Texans watched Bhayshul Tuten slide 84 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. Job largely done: running back settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
They took Kenneth Grant at par in slot 25, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick58 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Steal is underselling it; Tyler Booker at Round 2, Pick 26 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at the Round 3 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick126 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
You do not let a linebacker like Barrett Carter reach the 126th pick and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick164 Rnd5 Eli Stowers
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Eli Stowers. The roster fit checks out.
Pick241 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
The board fumbled Bhayshul Tuten all the way to pick No. 241, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
