Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB-
The Texans robbed the room for Higgins. Final grade: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Jay Higgins had no business being available in pick No. 243, and the Texans did the only sane thing and turned in the card. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The cost of the Williams reach is exactly the players who went right after him. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with running back the one that mattered most.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the Round 1 slot they get a No. 1 receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Josh Conerly Jr.
Josh Conerly Jr. at Round 2, Pick 26 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick94 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at pick 94 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick127 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in slot 127 is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick167 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kyle Williams. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in the 243rd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
