Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The Texans looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Austin Siereveld at the 57th overall pick regardless, 29 picks early.

However the rest shakes out, Love at that price is a win they earned. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In No. 26 they get an every-down engine for the run game, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick38 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
A reasonable price with a little left over, Emmanuel Pregnon in the 38th pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick57 Rnd2 Austin Siereveld
They left a pile of value on the table to take Austin Siereveld this early at pick 57. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick68 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange at pick No. 68 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick106 Rnd4 Omar Cooper Jr.
Somehow Omar Cooper Jr. was still sitting there in slot 106, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson in Round 4, Pick 25 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick165 Rnd5 LJ Martin
A straight-up fair deal on LJ Martin at the 165th pick, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick242 Rnd7 Robert Spears-Jennings
They paid up for Robert Spears-Jennings at Round 7, Pick 26 when waiting would have done the job. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick244 Rnd7 Shamar Easter
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Shamar Easter. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
