Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D+
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureF
The phones sank the Texans this weekend: D+.

Some picks age like wine; Ricky Pearsall at the 154th overall pick will need to, sitting 46 spots clear of his grade.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. They will answer for taking DT-EDGE early while interior defensive lineman, offensive lineman and other spots went begging.

They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. The Arnold value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In the 26th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
Dallas Turner in No. 27 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Trey Benson
A reach for Trey Benson in pick No. 49; a little patience would have been rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 Terrion Arnold
They will replay Terrion Arnold at Round 3, Pick 2 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick77 Rnd3 Maason Smith
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went DT-EDGE with Maason Smith while clear needs at interior defensive lineman, offensive lineman and other spots sat open.
Pick79 Rnd3 Rod Moore
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rod Moore. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick92 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
A real head-scratcher, Roman Wilson in No. 92 is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick117 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at the 117th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
They reached into another round for Ben Sinnott, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick154 Rnd5 Ricky Pearsall
They talked themselves into Ricky Pearsall at pick No. 154, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
