Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureC+
Nobody dealt better than the Texans this weekend: B.

The Texans torched the value chart for DJ Campbell, taking him 62 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

Higgins at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front, though they paid up to get him.
Pick58 Rnd2 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at the 58th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Devin Neal
Devin Neal in the 127th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick163 Rnd5 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at Round 5, Pick 24 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick167 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
A wild overpay on DJ Campbell in pick 167, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick188 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Taking Jay Higgins in pick No. 188 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier at No. 217 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick243 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
The board fumbled Kyle Monangai all the way to pick 243, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick247 Rnd7 Kamren Fabiculanan
They paid a round early for Kamren Fabiculanan in the 247th pick, more than the board wanted. It adds depth where they could use a little.
