Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesC FutureA
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Texans.

There is reaching, and then there is Shilo Sanders at Round 7, Pick 25. The Texans jumped the board by 34 and dared it to prove them wrong. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Phillips falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Job largely done: running back settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In the 25th pick they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery at Round 2, Pick 26 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at the 127th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick167 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Nothing to complain about; Bhayshul Tuten went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick243 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at No. 243 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
