Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureC+
The Texans let Cornelius fall and pounced. Final grade: D.

The Texans lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. The math is unkind, and the D follows.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Cornelius.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tacario Davis
In pick No. 25 they get a press-man option on the boundary. Need was not the driver here.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
A tidy bit of business in pick 41, where Jack Sawyer graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick42 Rnd2 Evan Stewart
They read the board right and Evan Stewart was the payoff at the Round 2 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick56 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in slot 56 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick86 Rnd3 Dasan McCullough
They took Dasan McCullough at par in Round 3, Pick 22, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick88 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 88th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick120 Rnd4 Nick Emmanwori
By-the-book stuff, Nick Emmanwori at Round 4, Pick 24 squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick155 Rnd5 Aeneas Peebles
A straight-up fair deal on Aeneas Peebles at pick 155, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick216 Rnd7 Jalon Daniels
Jalon Daniels at the 216th overall pick is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
