Do ya'll think the Texans will do something about the OL this summer?

Defense was definitely the focus of the offseason, but we need to do something about the OL as well.

We tried to get Pace, if you remember.

There aren't many more options left this summer at least until June 1 cuts.

My guess is that the line will be the same set of players, but more improved.
