Overall B

ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-

Best value of the weekend goes to the Texans for Edwards: B.

The board owed the Texans one, and it paid up: Donovan Edwards, the No. 203 name on the board, sitting there at Round 7, Pick 20 like a gift left on the doorstep.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They are betting Thornton Jr. proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The roster is better shaped than it was, with running back chief among the fixes.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick25 Rnd1 Matthew Golden

In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a true top target at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.

Pick58 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell

Circle this one: Jihaad Campbell at No. 58 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.

Pick79 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson

Quietly one of the better values of the day, Donovan Jackson at the 79th pick. The roster fit checks out.

Pick89 Rnd3 Jared Wilson

A conviction pick on Jared Wilson at pick No. 89 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.

Pick166 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.

Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the Round 5 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
