Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans robbed the room for Sainristil. Final grade: B-.

The Texans spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Mike Sainristil, the No. 75 name on the board, in the Round 4 slot.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard in the 42nd pick is fair value, right on his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick59 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
No edge and no loss on Braden Fiske in pick 59; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick86 Rnd3 Javon Baker
Javon Baker at the 86th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick123 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A tidy bit of business in Round 4, Pick 23, where Cedric Gray graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
They barely believed it either: Mike Sainristil still on the board at pick No. 127. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick188 Rnd6 Dillon Johnson
Steal is underselling it; Dillon Johnson at the Round 6 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick247 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
By-the-book stuff, Brevyn Spann-Ford at No. 247 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
