Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Texans and Gordon II: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Ollie Gordon II, the No. 160 name on the board, stolen at slot 236. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In pick No. 20 they get a load in the middle, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick52 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker slipping to No. 52 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick84 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Andrew Mukuba at pick 84 is the proof. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick121 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
The board had Smael Mondon Jr. higher than the 121st pick, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick164 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick236 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
They will replay Ollie Gordon II at the 236th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
