Draft Grade — Texans
Overall A-
ValueA- NeedA- TradesA+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Texans for Edwards: A-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Donovan Edwards had no business being available in the Round 7 slot, and the Texans did the only sane thing and turned in the card. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A-.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

Adding Tee Higgins by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies. Job largely done: running back settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Tetairoa McMillan and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
Tetairoa McMillan is a better player than the Round 1 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick58 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
They will replay Omarion Hampton at Round 2, Pick 26 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick89 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
A quiet steal in slot 89: Elijah Arroyo for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick166 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin in the 166th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick236 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Carson Vinson at No. 236. The roster fit checks out.
Pick241 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
They barely believed it either: Donovan Edwards still on the board at pick No. 241. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
