Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Texans for Skattebo: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Cam Skattebo, the No. 110 name on the board, stolen at the 241st pick. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get an anchor for the defensive front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick58 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They robbed the room for Tyler Booker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick89 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
They will replay Tyler Warren at the 89th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Circle this one: Kevin Winston Jr. at slot 126 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick165 Rnd5 Barrett Carter
The board fumbled Barrett Carter all the way to the Round 5 slot, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick241 Rnd7 Cam Skattebo
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Cam Skattebo in the 241st overall pick, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
