Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB
The Texans robbed the room for James. Final grade: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Jordan James slide, and the Texans were the ones holding the card at No. 167. Highway robbery. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In the 30th overall pick they get a ballhawk on the back end, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick58 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
A quiet steal in No. 58: Aireontae Ersery for less than the market said. It fills a real need, too.
Pick102 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
They will replay Mason Taylor at pick No. 102 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick108 Rnd4 Jaylin Noel
Jaylin Noel at slot 108 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson slid further than he should have, and the 119th pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick127 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
They took Darius Alexander at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick167 Rnd5 Jordan James
They barely believed it either: Jordan James still on the board at Round 5, Pick 28. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168 Rnd5 Aeneas Peebles
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at pick 168 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick243 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in No. 243 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
