Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Texans a B+.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in the 236th overall pick, a good 44 spots before the room expected him. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. That McMillan pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In pick No. 25 they get a matchup problem out wide at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick58 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
They went early on Tate Ratledge in the Round 2 slot, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick89 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Donovan Jackson in the 89th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
No edge and no loss on Jonah Monheim in Round 5, Pick 28; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick236 Rnd7 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
They reached into another round for Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick241 Rnd7 Francisco Mauigoa
They left a pile of value on the table to take Francisco Mauigoa this early at slot 241. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
