Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Texans cashed the board's mistake on Cornelius: B+.

Thirty-one other rooms let Ajani Cornelius slide, and the Texans were the ones holding the card at Round 5, Pick 28. Highway robbery. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In pick No. 25 they get a difference-maker at receiver, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick87 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
They took Donovan Jackson at par in Round 3, Pick 23, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
They paid sticker price for Dylan Fairchild in No. 89, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick95 Rnd3 Devin Neal
Value with a capital V on Devin Neal in the Round 3 slot, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick127 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
They barely believed it either: Malachi Moore still on the board at the 127th overall pick. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick167 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick 167 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
