Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
The Texans robbed the room for Simon. Final grade: B.

The Texans did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Cody Simon fell into the 173rd pick.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Every board in the league had Noel lower, and that gap is the story.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In slot 25 they get an enforcer at safety. More want than need.
Pick63 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
A clean, defensible pick in Round 2, Pick 31 with a little surplus value in Alfred Collins. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jaylin Noel
They liked Jaylin Noel enough to skip the value, taking him in the 92nd pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Terrance Ferguson
Fair-plus on Terrance Ferguson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jordan James
Nice patience on Jordan James, who had no business lasting to No. 132. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick173 Rnd5 Cody Simon
Cody Simon at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick236 Rnd7 Kyle Williams
Steal is underselling it; Kyle Williams at the 236th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick243 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
You do not let a running back like Trevor Etienne reach pick No. 243 and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
