    I’m still trusting Gaine. Contracts we did agree to were respectable. Cant get every guy you go for. Move on to the next guy now.

    I get where you are coming from, but the Jags without AC wouldn't have been the same team. The guy can play... can't compare him to guys like Ish and Asik. He's better IMO than Butler. You wanna go down the route of overpaying a LT who isn't worth the price... As a Texan fan, we can all agree we've been down that road before.

    You also dont pay a guy like zach fulton top dollar when no one else was bidding for him. Hes an ok olineman but not worth 7.5 a year. They shot their shot and missed. And with watson, we know they will be just good enough to be out of reach pf the top tackles in next years draft. Or he will get injured again due to lack of even an ok tackle on the team.

    Cameron Fleming can play both left and right tackle. Just saying

    I would expect that to be their next OT target

    Kinda glad we missed these ridiculous contracts thus far. OL has to be built thru the draft. Simple as that

    He’s one of the better pass protecting guards in the league.

    LOL Texans. They'll overpay a bunch of backups plus one vet starter who they'll end up cutting by next season. Pancakes will write glowing reviews for all of them during OTAs and camp, then slam the signings when we're struggling to reach 8-8. Run for your life Deshaun!

    We’re off to a hot start there, too. The league picks players one day earlier than us.

    Blessing in disguise.

    We have too many holes to blow a big chunk on an average LT

    This could allocate more money for EJ Gaines which I’m all for.

    Lol. That’s free agency for you. That’s why it’s better to draft well and pay your own guys then have 65 million to play with try to sign (and strike out on apparently) these other guys.

    Brown would have been a lot cheaper.

    Maybe my eyes deceived me but I thought Davenport looked good the last 2 games of the season when he was starting at LT. A full NFL offseason should help his strength out.

    Davenport/ Allen/ Martin/ Fulton/ Henderson has the potential to be average at least which is still 10 fold better than what we’re last year.
