Texans get RB James Allen

Catches passes, too.

 

Another solid player........Excellent!

 

Did we also sign safety Allen Rossum from the Packers?

 

I wonder what will happen if Foster or Duckett slips to us now...

 

Not a James Allen fan, but I'm happy with the contract.

Apparently the Texans don't think he's anything more than a temporary filler as well.

Haven, if serious rb talent falls to the Texans in the draft, I doubt they'll pass it up.

Now they just need a decent starting qb for this year ...

 

Anyone know much about Clif Groce, the fullback they signed???


os

 

Found this. Its his game by game stats of every game in his NFL career:

Looks like he's pretty good at catching passes out of the backfield

 

46 Clif Groce
RB
Date of Birth: 7/30/72
College: Texas A&M
HT: 5-11 WT: 245
NFL Seasons: 5
Signed by Indianapolis in 1995.
Claimed from New England off waivers in 1998.


SCOUTING REPORT As a good blocker, he gets low, has good lift and can drive people out of the hole. He can also continue on to the secondary. He has good hands, runs well after the catch and fights for extra yardage. He doesn't get many opportunities to run with the ball, though.

 

Falcons got Rossum, And Warrick Dunn

 

i like how many of the free agents come to houston to be close to their hometown. hopefully future free agents will do the same.

 

the texans could not be doing a better job in their building plan imho. this is outstanding.
