Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueA- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Texans won the night they stopped Williams from sliding. Grade: B+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Antonio Williams got past him. The Texans do not have to explain a thing at the 106th overall pick.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The Trey Smith pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In the 28th pick they get a mismatch in the passing game, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
The board had Sonny Styles higher than the Round 2 slot, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. It fills a real need, too.
Pick59 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks in pick 59 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick106 Rnd4 Antonio Williams
Antonio Williams in slot 106 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick141 Rnd5 Eli Raridon
Eli Raridon at No. 141 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick167 Rnd5 Demond Claiborne
Demond Claiborne at pick No. 167 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick243 Rnd7 Isaiah Jatta
Fair-plus on Isaiah Jatta, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
