Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Texans for White III: B-.

Somebody in pick No. 241 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Texans sat still while Ricky White III, the No. 217 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. They are betting Wilson proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick No. 25 they get a mismatch in the passing game at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in pick 58 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick79 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
They liked Jared Wilson enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 89. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick166 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
A straight-up fair deal on Chase Lundt at Round 5, Pick 28, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick236 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in slot 236 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick241 Rnd7 Ricky White III
You do not let a wide receiver like Ricky White III reach the 241st pick and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
