Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Texans: B.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Texans started one anyway for Gabe Hall, 35 picks ahead of schedule. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through offensive lineman. The Edwards pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Good work on the whole, with offensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the 27th pick they get a double-digit-sack hope, even if it was a touch early. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick53 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
A tidy bit of business in slot 53, where Xavier Legette graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the 88th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick121 Rnd4 Donovan Edwards
A running back of that caliber at Round 4, Pick 21 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick127 Rnd4 Junior Colson
The board had Junior Colson higher than No. 127, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick158 Rnd5 Gabe Hall
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Gabe Hall well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick239 Rnd7 Blake Watson
Blake Watson in pick 239 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick242 Rnd7 Phil Jurkovec
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Phil Jurkovec at Round 7, Pick 22. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
