Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Texans for Skattebo: B.

When a board-topper like Cam Skattebo slides to slot 243, you do not overthink it, and the Texans did not.

Every board in the league had Jackson lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In slot 25 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
They reached a country mile for Donovan Jackson at No. 58, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at the 89th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick127 Rnd4 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at the 127th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick167 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Circle this one: Lathan Ransom at the Round 5 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick243 Rnd7 Cam Skattebo
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Cam Skattebo in Round 7, Pick 25, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
