Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Texans let Hampton fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Somebody in the Round 2 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Texans sat still while Omarion Hampton, the No. 31 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In the 25th pick they get a building block for the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Omarion Hampton in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick79 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
A tidy little value on Elijah Arroyo in slot 79, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick89 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond in Round 3, Pick 25 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick166 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
No edge and no loss on Seth McLaughlin in pick No. 166; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick236 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
Craig Woodson slipping to No. 236 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
They paid sticker price for Jamon Dumas-Johnson in the 241st overall pick, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
