    ^^ Looks like Clowney will be out for the season and Osweiler may throw an interception this season. What a downer. :(

    Man, not one wideout with a number in the '80's.

    No, sir, I don't like it.

    Now, you kids get off my lawn!

    wasn't sure where to put this...

    17. Houston Texans

    QB Brock Osweiler, RB Lamar Miller, WR DeAndre Hopkins

    Hopkins made the mistake of having a transcendent year during a season in which Julio Jones and Antonio Brown each posted career campaigns, but he was comfortably the third-best wideout in football last season. That goes even further when you remember that Hopkins had Brian Hoyer and Ryan Mallett throwing him passes and nobody more impressive than a 32-year-old Nate Washington alongside him to draw away attention. Miller was effective for the Dolphins in a limited role and should be an improvement upon Alfred Blue. Osweiler is still a fascinating mystery. This is a trio that could very well be fifth or 25th in the triplet rankings this time next year.

    I like that it says we have a chance at 5th best.. at least they acknowledge the fact that it "could" happen

    Eugene Monroe is about to get cut by The Ravens. Could we even afford him? I would love to bring him in to start the season as our LT while Duane Brown recovers. He'd be a hell of a swing tackle and would ensure that if DB gets injured again, our offensive line won't fall apart...

    I know we resigned Chris Clark, who was serviceable, but I don't think there is such thing as too much depth on the OLine...

    Sorry, I should have said. This is a ranking of top offensive "triplets" in the league.

    When O'Brien singles out an impressive player without being prompted you must know he has really improved. Benardrick McKinney seems to be in line for a big year, hope he can improve enough in coverage to be a 3 down backer.

    Texans don't have the cap room. Plus....they will not tie up that type of money on the DL with Watt there.

    I think we should make a play for OT Jake Long.

    He's saying he's feeling fully healthy, and I don't think a workout would hurt.

    Would love to shore up the O line.
