    Not sure how I feel about it. Definitely not a bad move, but one of the first moves we get younger AND more expensive... Interesting nonetheless...

    Never was a fan of Mckinney, I feel like he was always an empty stats guy. Someone on the team had to get tackles and it was him. He really did not make many big plays and the sport is all about big plays.

    It will make little sense if Shaq isn't getting an extra year added. This way you get Shaq plus clear up space to bring in some New England exes.

    Honestly this was a good move considering the Kirksey signing, already having Cunningham and Lovie Smith running a 4/3 scheme versus a 3/4.

    Meh. McKinney is no loss though. I’m happy to see a move I guess...

    Lawson is a high talent player -- a former 1st round pick. McKinney was league-average at the very best. I like the trade.

    You're not running for 2,700 yards on that line.

    Easterby is going to be so confused when he gets out of church and sees all of these Texans trades

    Good move. This is what it feels like to have a GM instead of OBrien. At least there is this in all the craziness

    LOL he literally has Jesus Christ tattooed on his chest. I am so disgusted with how they are turning our city's football team into a tent revival. If there really was a god he would call Cal and Jack home since enough is enough.

    So you're upset about this deal due to some kind of weird religious bigotry that is part of who you are? Sounds like something best kept to yourself.

    This type of bigotry needs to be called out. This is just ignorant and awful. If you can't understand why, then substitute Judaism or Islam into your attack in place of Christianity and see what the response would be.
