Overall B-

ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-

A respectable, level-headed haul for the Texans: B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on McKinnley Jackson; the Texans did not wait, grabbing him 37 spots ahead at the Round 3 slot. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. The Arnold value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick42 Rnd2 Terrion Arnold

You do not let a cornerback like Terrion Arnold reach the 42nd overall pick and blink. They did not. A minor itch, scratched.

Pick59 Rnd2 Payton Wilson

They took Payton Wilson at par in pick No. 59, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.

Pick86 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson

They left a pile of value on the table to take McKinnley Jackson this early at slot 86. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.

Pick123 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott

Ben Sinnott at No. 123 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.

Pick127 Rnd4 Ainias Smith

Ainias Smith at pick 127 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.

Pick188 Rnd6 Dillon Johnson
