Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Texans a B-.

Every other box got a look, but edge rusher did not. The Texans will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The cost of the Smith reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The Mbow steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
By-the-book stuff, Emeka Egbuka at No. 25 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick58 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
A slide stopped in the Round 2 slot, with Marcus Mbow worth more than the price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick79 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
They took Ozzy Trapilo at par in the 79th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick89 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm in the 89th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jaydon Blue
A reach on Jaydon Blue in pick 166; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick236 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson at Round 7, Pick 20 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
Jaylin Smith at pick No. 241 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
