Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in slot 241 lands the Texans a B, Gordon II and all.

When a board-topper like Ollie Gordon II slides to No. 241, you do not overthink it, and the Texans did not. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
Tetairoa McMillan in the 25th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick58 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Taking Tyler Booker in the 58th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
They read the board right and Omarr Norman-Lott was the payoff at pick 89. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Circle this one: Kevin Winston Jr. at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick165 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
The board fumbled Sonny Styles all the way to Round 5, Pick 28, and they scooped it up. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick241 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II in pick No. 241 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
