Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in pick No. 106: the Texans steal Golday and grade out a B.

The Texans spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jake Golday, the No. 58 name on the board, in pick 106.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Reid has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In slot 28 they get a three-down second-level presence, outstanding value to boot.
Pick38 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at the Round 2 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick59 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Max Iheanachor at No. 59 is the proof. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick69 Rnd3 Christen Miller
They will replay Christen Miller at pick No. 69 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jake Golday
Steal is underselling it; Jake Golday at Round 4, Pick 6 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick141 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
Beau Stephens at the 141st overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick167 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
They read the board right and Kevin Coleman Jr. was the payoff at pick 167. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick243 Rnd7 Desmond Reid
Desmond Reid at the 243rd pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick244 Rnd7 Fa'alili Fa'amoe
Fa'alili Fa'amoe in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
