    I don't disagree. It's a great thing to have.

    But he's always been this way. Even when he was considered one of the best in the league and was going to Pro Bowls he was dropping passes like crazy.

    If he can still ball?

    Look at the dudes stats and QBs he’s had. 4th is nothing. We had to have another WR.

    nothing. fuller is hurt obviously and coutee just essentially stays in the same role he was playing which is perfectly fine

    His numbers will go up with a much better QB situation.

    Sanders numbers also dropped when the QB hell took place in Denver.

    maybe but I'm sure the other teams were low balling as well hoping to drive the price down. Maybe they paid a little premium but if that's the guy you want you go get him and don't let some other team steal him from under you. A 4th is definitely as high as I'd go and at least they got a little back with the 7th round pick, albeit it isn't much.

    I like the trade. Keke can be a the big play guy but texans still needed some consistent play from another WR

    Unless they get GREAT value, it'd be dumb to move another draft asset for another WR at this point.
    Need to stockpile those to draft all O-linemen in this upcoming draft, lol.

    Nope, but he's tied for 6th. Golden Tate actually has more drops.

    Incorrect.

    He's dropped 4 passes this year which is in the top 12 though. Golden Tate has actually dropped one more.

    O'Brien is preparing to run Miller outside... Thomas' side.

    Ya. That was in response to the offense next season. Don’t think it’s a foregone conclusion that he’ll finish out his deal but will come to that intersection when it’s time.

    NFL Twitter loves them some Tate. ;)



    All these guys are slightly older than I would have thought.

    DeSean Jackson 32
    Pierre Garcon 32
    Demaryius Thomas 31
    Golden Tate 30

    I probably would have given a 3rd if push came to shove for DeSean Jackson but no more than a 4th for the rest.

    Cooper - 3rd/4th
    Jackson - 3rd
    Tate - 4th
    Thomas 4th
    Garcon - Conditional 7th

    If we gave up a 4th and a 7th for him, I'm pretty sure he's in our plans.

    So if you have DHop on 1 side and DT on the other.....then Fuller/Coutee playing slot?

    not really. texans have been known to miss on those mid round picks and they didn't lose a 7th. they swapped with denver. they're not invested at all outside of this year with plenty of options to decide upon after

    Between this and Deshaun Watson following DeSean Jackson on IG, I'm a bit disappointed. DT it is.
