Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Texans let Turner fall into their laps, and walked away with a D.

The Texans lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

Milton III has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. That is an edge rusher worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Job largely done: running back settled and 8 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Dallas Turner
A edge rusher of that caliber at Round 2, Pick 10 is the definition of value, full stop. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick43 Rnd2 JC Latham
Taking JC Latham in pick No. 43 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick44 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kool-Aid McKinstry at the Round 2 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick59 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on T'Vondre Sweat. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick60 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at slot 60 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in the 74th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick77 Rnd3 Javon Baker
No edge and no loss on Javon Baker in the Round 3 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick79 Rnd3 Cade Stover
A straight-up fair deal on Cade Stover at pick No. 79, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick86 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
By-the-book stuff, Calen Bullock at Round 3, Pick 23 squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick123 Rnd4 Audric Estime
No drama and no debate, Audric Estime went about where he belonged in pick 123. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick127 Rnd4 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at No. 127 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick188 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A big swing on Joe Milton III at the 188th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick189 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
A slide stopped in the 189th pick, with Tahj Washington worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick238 Rnd7 Carson Steele
Carson Steele at slot 238 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick247 Rnd7 Myles Murphy
Myles Murphy at pick 247 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
