Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Texans let Tiernan fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+.

You could see the war room lean forward. Caleb Tiernan at the 106th overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Mike Onwenu pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In pick No. 31 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker, outstanding value to boot.
Pick38 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman in pick 38 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick59 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks is a better player than Round 2, Pick 27 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers slid further than he should have, and slot 69 is lovely value for the tight end. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick106 Rnd4 Caleb Tiernan
Caleb Tiernan at the 106th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick167 Rnd5 Cyrus Allen
A tidy bit of business in No. 167, where Cyrus Allen graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick243 Rnd7 Robert Henry Jr.
Robert Henry Jr. at the Round 7 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
