Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans robbed the room for Neal. Final grade: B.

The board owed the Texans one, and it paid up: Devin Neal, the No. 84 name on the board, sitting there at the 241st pick like a gift left on the doorstep.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the Round 1 slot they get a wrecking ball inside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in the 58th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at Round 3, Pick 25 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
They will replay Tez Johnson at No. 126 for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. at pick 165 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick241 Rnd7 Devin Neal
The board fumbled Devin Neal all the way to the 241st pick, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
