Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB FutureC+
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Texans a B-.

Some picks age like wine; Trey Taylor at the Round 6 slot will need to, sitting 74 spots clear of his grade. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at pick No. 42 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick47 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A straight-up fair deal on Edgerrin Cooper at the 47th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick86 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
They went early on Christian Mahogany in No. 86, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
A premium they did not need to pay, Jarrian Jones a notch or two before his time. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick127 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at pick 127 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick188 Rnd6 Trey Taylor
Value said wait; Trey Taylor in slot 188 says they were not listening. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick189 Rnd6 Erick All
A conviction pick on Erick All at the Round 6 slot that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick238 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at Round 7, Pick 18 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick247 Rnd7 Bub Means
Bub Means at pick No. 247 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
