Powerful DRAFTING FOR THETexans
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Texans
Overall
B
ValueA-

FutureB-
Larceny in the 241st pick lands the Texans a B, Skattebo and all. The Texans did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Cam Skattebo fell into the 241st pick. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.
The edge rusher 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.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in Round 1, Pick 25 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick58
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in slot 58 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89
Rnd3
Isaiah Bond
You do not let a wide receiver like Isaiah Bond reach pick No. 89 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick126
Rnd4
Mason Taylor
A tight end of that caliber at No. 126 is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick165
Rnd5
Kevin Winston Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Kevin Winston Jr. at the 165th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick241
Rnd7
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in the Round 7 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
