POWERFUL DRAFTING FOR THETexans
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Texans
Overall

FutureB-
The Texans robbed the room for Jones. Final grade: B. The Texans did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Logan Jones fell into No. 241.
A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. The Fannin Jr. pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Harold Fannin Jr.
In slot 25 they get a matchup weapon at tight end, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick57
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
They robbed the room for Jalon Walker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89
Rnd3
Kaleb Johnson
Taking Kaleb Johnson in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick126
Rnd4
Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins in No. 126 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick164
Rnd5
Chris Paul Jr.
Somehow Chris Paul Jr. was still sitting there in pick 164, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick241
Rnd7
Logan Jones
Logan Jones in the 241st overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
