Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Texans and Judkins: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Quinshon Judkins had no business being available in pick 164, and the Texans did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
No drama and no debate, Emeka Egbuka went about where he belonged in pick 25. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They will replay Jalon Walker at pick No. 57 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
They barely believed it either: Alfred Collins still on the board at No. 89. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick126 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
They robbed the room for Andrew Mukuba here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick164 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins at slot 164 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jonah Monheim
Somehow Jonah Monheim was still sitting there in Round 7, Pick 27, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The roster fit checks out.
