Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Texans.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named wide receiver, a need the Texans walked right past.

The Love value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a workhorse for the backfield, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick37 Rnd2 Kenyon Sadiq
A tidy bit of business in the 37th pick, where Kenyon Sadiq graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick53 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
A slide stopped in pick 53, with Olaivavega Ioane worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick66 Rnd3 Connor Lew
Connor Lew at the 66th overall pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick108 Rnd4 Keon Sabb
Keon Sabb slipping to the Round 4 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick121 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson in pick No. 121 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick162 Rnd5 Iapani Laloulu
Fair-plus on Iapani Laloulu, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
