Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC FutureB-
Larceny in the 106th overall pick lands the Texans a B-, Haulcy and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. A.J. Haulcy tumbling to the Texans in slot 106 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
Nothing to complain about; Sonny Styles went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick38 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Olaivavega Ioane at pick 38 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick59 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Max Iheanachor in the Round 2 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick69 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
A slide stopped in Round 3, Pick 5, with Eli Stowers worth more than the price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick106 Rnd4 A.J. Haulcy
Circle this one: A.J. Haulcy at the 106th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick141 Rnd5 Gracen Halton
They paid sticker price for Gracen Halton in the 141st pick, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick167 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
Kevin Coleman Jr. slid further than he should have, and No. 167 is lovely value for the wide receiver. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick168 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
J'Mari Taylor in slot 168 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
