    I don't want any part of him. It's not that he's outspoken, it's the fact that he made a bullshit ass lie up, created chaos in an already heavily controversial topic and divided a divide even greater. Then he hid behind the nfl shield for protection, trying to get players and league to back him to go against lvpd. He's up on every platform crying wolf and when the truth comes out on video, he becomes dead silent. **** that. That to me is a straight up coward with a big mouth.

    My biggest pet peeve is someone making up grandiose lies to better their side of the story.

    The Texans have always been such non players in NFL free agency, except for about 3 or 4 years, that I do not even get excited for this time of year. If something happens in free agency, it happens if it doesn't it doesn't. It really doesn't phase me either way

    The veteran running back market typically doesn’t include players who draw extensive interest. This year, it could be different.

    Patriots running back Dion Lewis is expected to get serious consideration from multiple teams, per a source with knowledge of the situation.

    Potentially interested teams include the Jets, Texans, 49ers, Raiders, and Colts. As many as six or seven teams are expected to pursue Lewis.

    A fifth-round pick of the Eagles in 2011, he arrived in New England after stints in Philly, Cleveland, and Indy. His best year by far came in 2017, with 896 rushing yards (an average of five yards per attempt) and 214 receiving yards. He had six rushing touchdowns and three receiving touchdowns.​

    Book it. Bringing in a few free agents, packaging two 3rds for a 2nd.

    The best news we could see is if we don’t do what McNair says we’ll do, which would indicate at least some freedom for the GM to make a decision independent of the Cogen board room.

    We need another stud running back to pound the ball, doesn't seem like our rookie runningback from last year will bounce back from injury very well...

    Guice is a high second rounder, he'll be signed and studying his new playbook by the time the Texans get on the board. This guy tho:
    He had a meh combine and I'm hoping he slips, he probably won't but if he does oh baby.

    Second choice (reality first choice) this is a Billy O' guy if I ever saw one, Watson would love him and honestly I think this guy could be our RB1:


    And then I wouldn't mind snapping this guy up with a 6th or if he falls to udfa

    We really need more WR's ( Deandre Hopkins and Fuller when healthy is all we got)
    Braxton hasnt showed anything (Other Ellington was a good) Should bring him back (But we need another play maker or two

    I forgot about Ronald Jones. Hard to bring down and homerun speed. Would be nice if Chubb slipped also

    Don't expect Flowers to be much more than a Fullback who can make some plays in the passing game. Marcel Reece esque
