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

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: DJ Giddens, the No. 170 name on the board, stolen at No. 236.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. The roster is better shaped than it was, with running back chief among the fixes. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 25th pick they get a weapon on the perimeter at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
A straight-up fair deal on Donovan Jackson at pick No. 58, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick79 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cameron Williams at the 79th overall pick is the proof. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jack Bech
A wide receiver of that caliber at slot 89 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick166 Rnd5 LeQuint Allen
Taking LeQuint Allen in Round 5, Pick 28 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick236 Rnd7 DJ Giddens
They robbed the room for DJ Giddens here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick241 Rnd7 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in pick 241 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
