Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Texans and Sanker: B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Texans watched Jonas Sanker slide 105 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The cost of the Skattebo reach is exactly the players who went right after him. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Derrick Harmon
In pick No. 25 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Cam Skattebo
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Cam Skattebo well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick79 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at pick 79 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
The board fumbled Cameron Williams all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
Taking Dorian Strong in the 166th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick236 Rnd7 Jonas Sanker
Jonas Sanker at No. 236 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jonas Sanker
Jonas Sanker in slot 241 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
