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

Thirty-one other rooms let Omarion Hampton slide, and the Texans were the ones holding the card at pick No. 58. Highway robbery. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They are betting Hamilton proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
No drama and no debate, Tyler Booker went about where he belonged in pick No. 38. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick58 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton in Round 2, Pick 26 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They read the board right and Jayden Higgins was the payoff at the Round 3 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at pick 77 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick79 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
A tidy bit of business in the 79th pick, where Wyatt Milum graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick89 Rnd3 Shemar Turner
Good price on Shemar Turner in slot 89, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick166 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
They paid sticker price for Kyle Williams in No. 166, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick236 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
A wild overpay on Ty Hamilton in the 236th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick241 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Bilhal Kone at No. 241 is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
