Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans cashed the board's mistake on Gordon II: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Ollie Gordon II, the 241st pick, roughly 73 picks past where he belonged.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick 25 they get a disruptive interior force. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They robbed the room for Tyler Booker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland in slot 89 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at the 126th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick164 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Smael Mondon Jr. at No. 164 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick241 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
The board fumbled Ollie Gordon II all the way to Round 7, Pick 27, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
