Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Texans.

The Texans went off the board in a big way for Garrett Dellinger, 56 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Getting Smith where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In slot 25 they get protection for the quarterback, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick58 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in pick 58 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick79 Rnd3 Shemar Turner
They paid sticker price for Shemar Turner in No. 79, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick89 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
They took Darius Alexander at par in pick No. 89, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick166 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
Brashard Smith at Round 5, Pick 28 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick236 Rnd7 Ricky White III
They robbed the room for Ricky White III here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick241 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
A wild overpay on Garrett Dellinger in slot 241, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
