    We have the 12th most cap space with about $60M to spend. Cutting Hargreaves would free up another $10M. He played well but think that money will need to be spent elsewhere.

    Not expecting them to do much with FA money.

    They desperately need to get a real pass rush.

    BOB had a terrible game.

    So did Watson.

    So...
    -no pass rush
    -secondary is 2nd to last in coverage
    -linebackers are the worst in coverage
    But other than that...

    Don't bring back any free agents on defense

    Spend most of your cap space on new defensive players

    Dedicate what you have in the draft mostly to defense

    O'B inherited a good defense and let it rot

    He inherited a great OL and let it rot. Should be fired now.

    No pass rush but so much money tied up in Mercilus, McKinney, and soon Cunningham none of which can rush worth a damn. And we were a bottom 5 run defense too. How did any of these guys make the pro bowl? Well as alternates anyway.

    If you drop Roby and Hargreaves we should go after Byron Jones.

    They can rush really well just Romeo doesn’t like to blitz.

    McKinney is a good blitzing middle LB and merci and Cunningham can as well.

    Bet that hurt. He might need to miss a few games to recover...

    Lance Zierlien just said he heard Roby is gone so Byron Jones needs to be a priority.

    That’s huge. I also think Reader walks as well we shouldn’t get into a bidding war for him.

    Byron Jones will fit well here also with Conley and Lonnie who all have good size and Hargreaves if he still here can cover slot.

    Roby must want insane money. Not sure Why when your secondary is that bad you let the best corner go.

    Not sure why when your OL is pretty good, you let your best left tackle, center, and guard go...turning into a multi-season laughing stock.

    It's the BO'B way.

    Get a new head coach, that is a top list for this team.

    I wonder how many of you have noticed this. There is NO WAY to communicate with the Houston Texans. Not the front office, not the owner, not any part of the organization. There is no official FAN FEEDBACK. Nothing at their website or anything else. They want our loyalty, they want our money, but DO NOT WANT TO HEAR FROM US, AT ALL! Think about it.
