[Official] Off Season Thread

Yea, so far so good. Not needing to reach as of yet on filling a potential starting hole.

 

The best part is that it's really only a 2 year deal with how the guaranteed money is set up. Good price, good contract. Sounds win-win to me.

 

Joseph has to be gone, I think. Saves $8.5MM, lets us develop Bouye/Morris/Rolle more, etc...

Makes sense.

 

I think that'll depend on guys like Randall Cobb and Ryan Mallett, if the extra money is needed then maybe.

 

Unless JJo is hurt there is no reason to get rid of him. Quality corners are hard to come by

 

Is Randal Cobb really that good? I don't know much about him?

 

He's considered the top FA WR and I think he'd do well in a Welker role.

He's very good. About 5'10 can turn a 5 yd pass into a 70yd td. Also can help on kick returns.

 

I like what the Texans are doing. If we can turn out some solid picks.. Could really have a nice roster.

 

Jacquian Williams following entire Houston media on twitter. Probably means he is a Texan. If so, its a good pickup. Helps provide depth at OLB if and when Clowney is not ready to go.

Wow, if the Texans can sign Maclin and Mallett, I will be content until draft.

 

Eagles are offering Maclin 9 mil per year; Maclin wants 11 mil a year

No thank you. Wonder if we can get Cobb at 7-8 million per

 

Cobb will command more than Maclin for sure.

 

Cobb supposedly balked the idea of 8-9 mil from GB with ARod at QB. Why would he come here for less and play with a less quality QB?
