Draft Grade — Texans
Overall F
ValueF NeedB TradesF FutureA
Quarterback settled, Chambliss in the fold, and a F for the Texans.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Roman Hemby in slot 143, a good 125 spots before the room expected him.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. Trinidad Chambliss is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. The McDonald pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

About as rough as a weekend gets on paper, with tight end still staring back at them.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Trinidad Chambliss
In the 5th pick they get a franchise quarterback, a steep price for the projection.
Pick28 Rnd1 Carter Smith
In slot 28 they get a building block for the line, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
They paid up for Jake Slaughter at pick No. 37 when waiting would have done the job. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jacob Rodriguez
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jacob Rodriguez this early at pick 38. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick59 Rnd2 D'Angelo Ponds
A swing that ignored the value entirely, D'Angelo Ponds well ahead of where he belonged. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick69 Rnd3 Kayden McDonald
They will replay Kayden McDonald at Round 3, Pick 5 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick105 Rnd4 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts at Round 4, Pick 5 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Omar Cooper Jr.
The board fumbled Omar Cooper Jr. all the way to pick 106, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jaydn Ott
A real head-scratcher, Jaydn Ott in the 128th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick137 Rnd4 DJ Campbell
They reached into another round for DJ Campbell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick143 Rnd5 Roman Hemby
A big swing on Roman Hemby at pick No. 143, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick151 Rnd5 Trey Moore
Trey Moore in No. 151 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Korey Foreman
Korey Foreman at slot 165 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick257 Rnd7 Ethan Calvert
A wild overpay on Ethan Calvert in the 257th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
