Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
The Texans turned the phones into found money: B+.

The real work happened on the phones. The Texans fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.

Landing Colson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Jackson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In the 32nd overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jonathon Brooks in Round 2, Pick 15. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick76 Rnd3 Junior Colson
They will replay Junior Colson at No. 76 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick94 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
They talked themselves into McKinnley Jackson at the Round 3 slot, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick104 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
A wild overpay on Ben Sinnott in pick No. 104, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick128 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams at slot 128 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley in pick 171 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick250 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ryan Watts. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
