Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Texans a B-.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Texans left edge rusher untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They banked enough surplus on Cooper to cover a lot of smaller sins. They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In the 23rd pick they get a weapon on the perimeter, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick59 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Edgerrin Cooper at the 59th overall pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick86 Rnd3 Cade Stover
Cade Stover in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick122 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
No edge and no loss on McKinnley Jackson in pick 122; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Fair-plus on Javon Foster, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick224 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Tyler Owens in slot 224 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick238 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
The board had Frank Gore Jr. higher than Round 7, Pick 18, and the running back fell to them anyway. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
They paid up for Ryan Watts at pick No. 247 when waiting would have done the job. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
