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

When a board-topper like Jadarian Price slides to pick No. 106, you do not overthink it, and the Texans did not. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The cost of the Campbell reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at the 28th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick38 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
They did well to land Dillon Thieneman in Round 2, Pick 6, just ahead of his grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick59 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
They robbed the room for Caleb Banks here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter is a better player than the 69th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jadarian Price
Circle this one: Jadarian Price at No. 106 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick128 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
A clean, defensible pick in pick 128 with a little surplus value in Eli Raridon. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick165 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
They paid a round early for DJ Campbell in pick No. 165, more than the board wanted. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick243 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
They will replay Zavion Thomas at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick244 Rnd7 Miller Moss
Nice patience on Miller Moss, who had no business lasting to the 244th overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
