Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Grand theft in the 91st overall pick: the Texans steal Bullard and grade out a D-.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Texans, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

The cost of the Abrams-Draine reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They will answer for taking safety early while tight end went begging.

For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain. However the rest shakes out, Bullard at that price is a win they earned.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
They took Chop Robinson at par in slot 33, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick47 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette at No. 47 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick53 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They paid sticker price for T'Vondre Sweat in the 53rd pick, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at Round 3, Pick 25 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
The board fumbled Javon Bullard all the way to pick 91, and they scooped it up. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick93 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at pick No. 93 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick95 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at slot 95 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick99 Rnd3 Junior Colson
They paid up for Junior Colson at Round 3, Pick 36 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick107 Rnd4 James Williams
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with James Williams while clear needs at tight end sat open.
Pick119 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A premium they did not need to pay, Javon Foster a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jordan Travis well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick127 Rnd4 Cade Stover
They bypassed pressing needs at tight end to take Cade Stover, a TE-EDGE that was not the priority.
Pick158 Rnd5 Mike Sainristil
They will replay Mike Sainristil at pick 158 for years; that is how good the value is. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick239 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry in No. 239 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick242 Rnd7 Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader in Round 7, Pick 22 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
