Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Hancock should have been long gone. The Texans pounced, and earned a B.

The Texans spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jordan Hancock, the No. 30 name on the board, in pick 62.

For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. Reaching for Crenshaw-Dickson left real value on the table behind him.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Omarion Hampton
In the Round 1 slot they get a featured back, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jordan Hancock
You do not let a cornerback like Jordan Hancock reach No. 62 and blink. They did not. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyleik Williams at slot 94. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick131 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Andrew Mukuba at the 131st pick is the proof. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick164 Rnd5 Gunnar Helm
No drama and no debate, Gunnar Helm went about where he belonged in pick No. 164. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick244 Rnd7 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
They went early on Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in Round 7, Pick 30, and the value did not follow. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
