Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureC
The Texans bled value on every deal, hence the D-.

The Texans clearly saw something nobody else did in Theo Wease Jr., taking him 31 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The Allar pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The Texans paired the rookies with proven help, David Njoku leading the way.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In slot 30 they get a blindside protector at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick31 Rnd1 Will Johnson
You do not let a cornerback like Will Johnson reach the 31st overall pick and blink. They did not. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick44 Rnd2 Barrett Carter
They paid up for Barrett Carter at No. 44 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick61 Rnd2 Mykel Williams
The board fumbled Mykel Williams all the way to pick No. 61, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick64 Rnd2 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II at Round 2, Pick 32 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick70 Rnd3 T.J. Sanders
A straight-up fair deal on T.J. Sanders at the 70th pick, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick77 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at pick 77 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick94 Rnd3 Nick Emmanwori
A slide stopped in the 94th pick, with Nick Emmanwori worth more than the price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick106 Rnd4 Theo Wease Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Theo Wease Jr. in Round 4, Pick 5 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick130 Rnd4 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at No. 130 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick164 Rnd5 Samuel Brown
Samuel Brown at the 164th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick246 Rnd7 Jason Henderson
Jason Henderson at pick No. 246 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
