Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in pick No. 58 lands the Texans a B, Warren and all.

The Texans spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Tyler Warren, the No. 16 name on the board, in slot 58. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. Wilson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in the 58th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick79 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at pick 79 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
A premium they did not need to pay, Jared Wilson a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
A wide receiver of that caliber at slot 166 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick236 Rnd7 Tahj Brooks
The board fumbled Tahj Brooks all the way to Round 7, Pick 20, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick241 Rnd7 Ricky White III
Ricky White III at No. 241 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
