Draft Grade — Texans
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureC
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Texans to a D-.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Texans reached some 134 spots for Will Sheppard, and value like that does not grow back. A D- that will need time and luck to look better.

That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
They paid sticker price for Tyler Warren in pick No. 19, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick58 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in the 58th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick89 Rnd3 Deone Walker
They robbed the room for Deone Walker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick119 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
You do not let a running back like TreVeyon Henderson reach the Round 4 slot and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick126 Rnd4 Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant in slot 126 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jake Majors
They will replay Jake Majors at the 162nd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick165 Rnd5 Sebastian Castro
They barely believed it either: Sebastian Castro still on the board at pick 165. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick168 Rnd5 Will Sheppard
Value said wait; Will Sheppard in pick No. 168 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser in slot 235 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick241 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Thor Griffith. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
