Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Texans.

Every other box got a look, but offensive lineman did not. The Texans will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with.

If Hart pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Good work on the whole, with offensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the 42nd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick59 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
By-the-book stuff, Braden Fiske at Round 2, Pick 27 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Cam Hart
A reach on Cam Hart in the Round 3 slot; the board had better options right there. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick123 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
No drama and no debate, Isaac Guerendo went about where he belonged in the 123rd pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick127 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
They took Mohamed Kamara at par in pick No. 127, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick188 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at No. 188 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Tyler Owens at slot 247 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
