Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Texans.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Texans reached some 56 spots for Garrett Dellinger, and value like that does not grow back. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Golden pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In No. 25 they get a true top target, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick59 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in slot 59 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick79 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins is a better player than pick No. 79 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick89 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
No drama and no debate, Gunnar Helm went about where he belonged in the 89th pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jake Majors
They read the board right and Jake Majors was the payoff at Round 4, Pick 34. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick166 Rnd5 Ollie Gordon II
They took Ollie Gordon II at par in the Round 5 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick183 Rnd6 Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton at pick No. 183 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Theo Wease Jr.
They reached into another round for Theo Wease Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick236 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner in the Round 7 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick241 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at the 241st pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
