    Honestly I'd have more faith in Rick Smith getting things done than BOB and his puppet.

    Oh, NOW YOU GUYS ARE MISSING RICK SMITH???? I knew it from the beginning! And now they just signed a SPECIAL TEAM PLAYER from the Pats and made him the most highest special team player. ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME???

    But I told you all Brian Gaine is YES MAN for O'B. He has total control to ruin this team

    You know they had to get an ex-Patriot. They tried Nate. No. Malcolm. No. Dion. No. They skipped Fleming and Waddle and went on to Bademosi. Yes.

    A lot for a corner but money is allocated well.

    He didn’t play well this year.

    I was anxious for texans to sign players, but if we going to do this type of signings Maybe I should just hope for no more signings

    I was saying that from the beginning too....

    They effectively made BOB the GM and now we're seeing what that looks like. Thus far, it hasn't been great.

    I'm a ALL EVERYTHING HOUSTON; ROCKETS, ASTROS, TEXANS, UH, ETC BUT I will not spend a dime on the Texans....All of my entertainment dollars go to The Rockets, Astros and UH alike and mine you $8k to 10k a yr is not a lot of money but I never have and never will spend a dime on The Texans.

    Since their existence, The Texans have never shown the wherewithal to put WINNING FIRST and ALL YOU FANS WHO CONTINUE TO BLOW YOUR MONEY ON KIRBY AND 610.....MORE POWER TO YOU

    It look like the Texans are more focused on next year and are using this signing period to shore us up for the long term.

    What we might see is us sign 1 "big money" player with a front loaded deal, give Clowney a big extension (also front loaded), and then use the additional cap flexibility to be a big player in free agency next year. Could also see us renegotiate Watts contract next season to open up even more room.
