Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans let Hampton fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Omarion Hampton at Round 2, Pick 26 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

If Fairchild pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup weapon at tight end, outstanding value to boot.
Pick58 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
You do not let a running back like Omarion Hampton reach Round 2, Pick 26 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick79 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at pick 79 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
The board had cheaper options than Jared Wilson at pick No. 89, and it noticed. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick166 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams in No. 166 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick236 Rnd7 Robert Longerbeam
The board had Robert Longerbeam higher than the 236th overall pick, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick241 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
They let Isaac TeSlaa come to them and pounced at slot 241. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
