Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA FutureB-
The Texans won the night they stopped Brown from sliding. Grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Samuel Brown tumbling to the Texans in Round 4, Pick 10 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

Every board in the league had Collins lower, and that gap is the story. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Ollie Gordon II
In the Round 1 slot they get a featured back. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick42 Rnd2 Mykel Williams
Mykel Williams in No. 42 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick56 Rnd2 Barrett Carter
They read the board right and Barrett Carter was the payoff at pick No. 56. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick88 Rnd3 Clay Webb
Clay Webb in slot 88 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum at Round 3, Pick 27 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Samuel Brown
They barely believed it either: Samuel Brown still on the board at pick 106. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick120 Rnd4 Nick Emmanwori
No edge and no loss on Nick Emmanwori in the 120th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick123 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
They went early on Davison Igbinosun in the 123rd overall pick, and the value did not follow. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick155 Rnd5 Alfred Collins
They left a pile of value on the table to take Alfred Collins this early at the Round 5 slot. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick216 Rnd7 Kaidon Salter
Nice patience on Kaidon Salter, who had no business lasting to the 216th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
