Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesA+ FutureC+
The Texans let Johnson fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Texans were there to profit. Kaleb Johnson, the No. 39 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 89th overall pick.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Adding DeForest Buckner by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In pick 25 they get a No. 1 receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick80 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts in Round 3, Pick 16 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick89 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
You do not let a running back like Kaleb Johnson reach pick No. 89 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
