Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Texans.

The Texans spent real capital to be 39 picks early on Zion Logue, and the board is going to hold them to it.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. They will answer for taking cornerback early while running back, quarterback and other spots went begging.

That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In the Round 1 slot they get a problem off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick59 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They did well to land Edgerrin Cooper in slot 59, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick86 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Value with a capital V on Junior Colson in Round 3, Pick 23, a genuine coup. The roster fit checks out.
Pick124 Rnd4 Max Melton
A quiet steal in No. 124: Max Melton for less than the market said. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick128 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
Of all the spots to shop, they chose cornerback. Kris Abrams-Draine in pick No. 128 leaves running back, quarterback and other spots for later.
Pick236 Rnd7 Zakhari Franklin
Zakhari Franklin at the 236th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Zion Logue
Zion Logue in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick250 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
A reach for Garret Greenfield in slot 250; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
