Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Texans lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Texans took Michael Barrett at slot 145, roughly 51 spots before his name belonged. A D- that will need time and luck to look better.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They banked enough surplus on Sanders to cover a lot of smaller sins.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the Round 1 slot they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, even if it was a touch early. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick32 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In slot 32 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They reached a country mile for T'Vondre Sweat at the 40th overall pick, and the board is aghast. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick54 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
They talked themselves into Cooper Beebe at the 54th pick, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
No drama and no debate, Jeremiah Trotter Jr. went about where he belonged in pick 65. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick78 Rnd3 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders in No. 78 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick90 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum slid further than he should have, and No. 90 is lovely value for the running back. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick91 Rnd3 Javon Foster
They left a pile of value on the table to take Javon Foster this early at pick 91. The roster fit checks out.
Pick101 Rnd4 James Williams
A big swing on James Williams at slot 101, well ahead of any board in the building. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick126 Rnd4 Cam Hart
A reach for Cam Hart in the Round 4 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick145 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Michael Barrett well ahead of where he belonged. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
