Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D
ValueA- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Texans cashed the board's mistake on Brown: D.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Texans, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. A D that will need time and luck to look better.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Brown pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

If Griffith pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Harold Perkins Jr.
They let Harold Perkins Jr. come to them and pounced at slot 31. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. is a better player than pick 41 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick42 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at the 42nd pick is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick56 Rnd2 Barrett Carter
The board had Barrett Carter higher than the 56th overall pick, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick63 Rnd2 Mykel Williams
Steal is underselling it; Mykel Williams at the Round 2 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick88 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson slipping to Round 3, Pick 24 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick120 Rnd4 Samuel Brown
A wide receiver of that caliber at the 120th pick is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick155 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at pick No. 155 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick216 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
A reach on Thor Griffith in Round 7, Pick 24; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
