Draft Grade — Texans
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA FutureA+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Texans for Skattebo: A-.

The Texans spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Cam Skattebo, the No. 99 name on the board, in pick 166. Little to argue with here, and the A- says so.

They will need Travis to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Matthew Golden and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In slot 25 they get a difference-maker at receiver, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick66 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in the 66th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick79 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
By-the-book stuff, Ozzy Trapilo at pick 79 squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Cam Skattebo in Round 5, Pick 28, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick236 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
No drama and no debate, Isaac TeSlaa went about where he belonged in pick No. 236. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick241 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at No. 241 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick257 Rnd7 Jalen Travis
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jalen Travis this early at the 257th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
