Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Texans cashed the board's mistake on McMillan: B+.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Texans came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

That McMillan pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The David Edwards deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Tetairoa McMillan
Circle this one: Tetairoa McMillan at pick No. 33 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick58 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
Nothing to complain about; TreVeyon Henderson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts in the 67th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick79 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
They read the board right and Cameron Williams was the payoff at slot 79. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
A tidy little value on Ozzy Trapilo in No. 89, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jonah Monheim. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick236 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
Jermari Harris at pick 236 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick241 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson slipping to Round 7, Pick 25 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
