The Texans let Williams fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

When a board-topper like Cameron Williams slides to Round 2, Pick 26, you do not overthink it, and the Texans did not. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. Conerly Jr. has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. On the needs board they went 1 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Josh Conerly Jr.
In the 25th pick they get a building block for the line, though they paid up to get him.
Pick58 Rnd2 Cameron Williams
Cameron Williams at Round 2, Pick 26 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
