Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Thornton Jr. should have been long gone. The Texans pounced, and earned a B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Dont'e Thornton Jr. tumbling to the Texans in Round 7, Pick 25 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. Skattebo has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick No. 25 they get a centerfielder for the defense. More want than need.
Pick58 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Aireontae Ersery at slot 58 is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick89 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A conviction pick on Cam Skattebo at pick 89 that the board grades a round light. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jaylin Noel
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Jaylin Noel in the Round 4 slot, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick167 Rnd5 Jamaree Caldwell
Jamaree Caldwell at Round 5, Pick 28 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick243 Rnd7 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Taking Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 243rd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
