Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Texans for Hampton: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Texans watched Omarion Hampton slide 28 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick No. 25 they get a security blanket over the middle, outstanding value to boot.
Pick59 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Somehow Omarion Hampton was still sitting there in the 59th overall pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick79 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
Cameron Williams is a better player than Round 3, Pick 15 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick89 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick129 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
Nothing to complain about; Emery Jones Jr. went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick166 Rnd5 Nick Nash
Nick Nash at No. 166 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick176 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
They did well to land Kyle Williams in slot 176, just ahead of his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick236 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Phil Mafah at the 236th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick241 Rnd7 CJ Dippre
CJ Dippre in the 241st pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
