Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueD NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Texans won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Braylan Shelby at the Round 2 slot is 223 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.

They banked enough surplus on Raymond to cover a lot of smaller sins. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Braylan Shelby
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Braylan Shelby. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick59 Rnd2 Ahmad Hardy
Ahmad Hardy at Round 2, Pick 27 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69 Rnd3 Bryant Wesco Jr.
Bryant Wesco Jr. slid further than he should have, and pick No. 69 is lovely value for the wide receiver. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick106 Rnd4 PJ Williams
PJ Williams at slot 106 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick128 Rnd4 James Smith
A wild overpay on James Smith in pick 128, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick165 Rnd5 Ashton Hampton
They will replay Ashton Hampton at the 165th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick243 Rnd7 Hollywood Smothers
Hollywood Smothers in pick 243 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick244 Rnd7 Antwan Raymond
You do not let a running back like Antwan Raymond reach Round 7, Pick 28 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
