Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Texans went off the board in a big way for DeMonte Capehart, 147 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Adding Tanner McKee by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In the 23rd pick they get a difference-maker at receiver, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Mike Sainristil
They paid sticker price for Mike Sainristil in slot 59, and that is fine. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick88 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A reach for Zak Zinter in the 88th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick124 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in pick 124 is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jared Wiley
A wild overpay on Jared Wiley in pick No. 160, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
They reached into another round for Jaylen Harrell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick236 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
A reach on LaDarius Henderson in No. 236; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick245 Rnd7 DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart at pick No. 245 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick250 Rnd7 Trente Jones
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Trente Jones. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
