Draft Grade — Texans

ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Texans: B-.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Texans shredded theirs for Michael Hall Jr.. He came off 23 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They took Tyler Nubin at par in Round 2, Pick 10, which is nothing to complain about. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick59 Rnd2 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at the Round 2 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
They liked Christian Mahogany enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 86. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick123 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
They paid a round early for Mohamed Kamara in pick No. 123, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick127 Rnd4 Josh Newton
Good price on Josh Newton in slot 127, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick188 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
A conviction pick on Jase McClellan at the 188th overall pick that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick247 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
They paid sticker price for LaDarius Henderson in slot 247, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
