Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB FutureC+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Texans and McMillan: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Tetairoa McMillan had no business being available in Round 2, Pick 5, and the Texans did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Every board in the league had Winston Jr. lower, and that gap is the story.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 Tetairoa McMillan
Circle this one: Tetairoa McMillan at the 37th pick is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick58 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Marcus Mbow at pick No. 58. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick68 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
No edge and no loss on Donovan Jackson in No. 68; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick79 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott in Round 3, Pick 15 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick89 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
They jumped the gun on Kevin Winston Jr., taking him earlier than his grade liked. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick108 Rnd4 Gunnar Helm
They barely believed it either: Gunnar Helm still on the board at slot 108. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick166 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
They did well to land Damien Martinez in the Round 5 slot, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick236 Rnd7 Joshua Gray
They will replay Joshua Gray at the 236th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
Nothing to complain about; Jermari Harris went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
