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

The rest of the league will want that one back. Mason McCormick tumbling to the Texans in the 236th pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

They are betting Boyd proves the room right and everyone else wrong. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick No. 23 they get a bendy edge with upside at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. in the Round 2 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Max Melton
A cornerback of that caliber at the 86th pick is the definition of value, full stop. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick124 Rnd4 Khristian Boyd
Value said wait; Khristian Boyd in No. 124 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick128 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams slid further than he should have, and pick 128 is lovely value for the safety. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick236 Rnd7 Mason McCormick
Circle this one: Mason McCormick at Round 7, Pick 16 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick245 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
They took Edefuan Ulofoshio at par in the 245th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick250 Rnd7 Jawhar Jordan
They went early on Jawhar Jordan in slot 250, and the value did not follow. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
