Romega74 DRAFTING FOR THETexans
Draft Grade — Texans
Overall

The Texans robbed the room for Iheanachor. Final grade: B. The Texans did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Max Iheanachor fell into slot 69. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
Sonny Styles
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a green-dot type in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38
Rnd2
Olaivavega Ioane
Olaivavega Ioane slipping to the Round 2 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick59
Rnd2
Caleb Banks
They let Caleb Banks come to them and pounced at No. 59. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick69
Rnd3
Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor in pick No. 69 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
