Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans kept it disciplined and banked a B.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named wide receiver, a need the Texans walked right past. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

Johnson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Job largely done: running back settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Derrick Harmon
In the 25th overall pick they get a load in the middle. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson at slot 58 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick89 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
Nice patience on Elijah Arroyo, who had no business lasting to Round 3, Pick 25. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick127 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
Nothing to complain about; Shemar Turner went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick167 Rnd5 Joshua Gray
Joshua Gray in the 167th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
