Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Texans for Amos: B.

When a board-topper like Trey Amos slides to pick No. 236, you do not overthink it, and the Texans did not. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In No. 25 they get a cornerstone up front at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick58 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Colston Loveland in Round 2, Pick 26, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick79 Rnd3 Walter Nolen
Circle this one: Walter Nolen at the 79th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick89 Rnd3 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery in the 89th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in pick No. 166 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick236 Rnd7 Trey Amos
A cornerback of that caliber at slot 236 is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jaydon Blue
Jaydon Blue in pick 241 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
