Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Texans for Johnson: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Kaleb Johnson got past him. The Texans do not have to explain a thing at the 79th pick. No fireworks, but a solid B.

If Conner pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In slot 25 they get a weapon on the perimeter at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea at the 58th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick79 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson at Round 3, Pick 15 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
A conviction pick on Jared Wilson at pick No. 89 that the board grades a round light. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kyle Williams. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick236 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
They talked themselves into Hayden Conner at the 236th pick, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick241 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
A premium they did not need to pay, Zeek Biggers a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
