Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureB
The Texans fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

The Texans ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

The Nash pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 30th overall pick they get a security blanket over the middle at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in the Round 2 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick89 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at slot 89 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick94 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Fair-plus on Charles Grant, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104 Rnd4 Chimere Dike
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Chimere Dike. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jaylin Lane
Jaylin Lane at pick 109 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick132 Rnd4 Mitchell Evans
They liked Mitchell Evans enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 4, Pick 30. It fills a real need, too.
Pick166 Rnd5 Nick Nash
Value with a capital V on Nick Nash in pick No. 166, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick179 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
DJ Giddens at slot 179 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jay Higgins in the 206th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick236 Rnd7 Dante Trader Jr.
They took Dante Trader Jr. at par in No. 236, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick241 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Bilhal Kone at pick No. 241 is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
