Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans won the night they stopped Jones from sliding. Grade: B-.

Call it larceny. Sheridan Jones sat on the board until the Round 7 slot, and the Texans did not need to be asked twice. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. They are betting Cole proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
They read the board right and Cooper DeJean was the payoff at Round 2, Pick 10. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick59 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in the 59th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick86 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick123 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Johnny Wilson at the 123rd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick127 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
A tidy bit of business in No. 127, where Matt Goncalves graded well above the range. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick188 Rnd6 Myles Cole
They paid a round early for Myles Cole in pick 188, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick247 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Somehow Sheridan Jones was still sitting there in slot 247, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
