Powerful DRAFTING FOR THETexans

Draft Grade — Texans

FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Texans. The Texans torched the value chart for De'Corian Clark, taking him 29 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.
Leaving offensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with running back the one that mattered most.
The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick42
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
By-the-book stuff, Edgerrin Cooper at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick59
Rnd2
Ruke Orhorhoro
A reach for Ruke Orhorhoro in the 59th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick86
Rnd3
Cam Hart
The board had cheaper options than Cam Hart at slot 86, and it noticed. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick123
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo in the 123rd pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick127
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at pick 127 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick188
Rnd6
Tanner McLachlan
Value said wait; Tanner McLachlan in Round 6, Pick 13 says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick247
Rnd7
De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark at slot 247 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
