Overall B-

ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-

The Texans cashed the board's mistake on Jones: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Sheridan Jones got past him. The Texans do not have to explain a thing at the Round 7 slot. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with running back the one that mattered most.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick42 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin

No edge and no loss on Tyler Nubin in Round 2, Pick 10; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.

Pick59 Rnd2 Braden Fiske

By-the-book stuff, Braden Fiske at pick 59 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.

Pick86 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk

They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Ja'Lynn Polk in the Round 3 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.

Pick123 Rnd4 Cedric Gray

Cedric Gray at the 123rd pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It fills a real need, too.

Pick127 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo

A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Isaac Guerendo. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
