Roe DRAFTING FOR THETexans
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Texans
Overall
B
ValueB+
NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Texans kept it disciplined and banked a B. The Texans clearly saw something nobody else did in Hayden Conner, taking him 35 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Good, not great, and the B says as much.
The Jackson pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Matthew Golden
The board had Matthew Golden higher than the 25th overall pick, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick58
Rnd2
Kaleb Johnson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kaleb Johnson at the 58th pick is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick79
Rnd3
Tre Harris
Tre Harris in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick89
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Donovan Jackson in slot 89, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166
Rnd5
Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt in Round 5, Pick 28 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick236
Rnd7
Hayden Conner
They reached a country mile for Hayden Conner at pick No. 236, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick241
Rnd7
Cam Jackson
Fair-plus on Cam Jackson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
