Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in Round 4, Pick 20 lands the Texans a B, Mukuba and all.

Thirty-one other rooms let Andrew Mukuba slide, and the Texans were the ones holding the card at the 121st pick. Highway robbery. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. The roster is better shaped than it was, with running back chief among the fixes. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a bell-cow for the offense at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick52 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker slid further than he should have, and slot 52 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick84 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke in No. 84 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick121 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Andrew Mukuba in pick 121, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick164 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
They robbed the room for Sonny Styles here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick236 Rnd7 Terrance Ferguson
Taking Terrance Ferguson in the 236th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
