Watch him turn into a competent return man and put up some slot receiver #'s. Hell, Belichick will probably put him at CB and he'll get a pick or 2.
Thought it was interesting they added Worthy to the roster this morning. Why have 7 WR when you're down to 2 TE and short a DL.
In leiu of this, looks like we claimed an OL from the waivers from the Jets. Oday Aboushi. 24 year old guard from Virginia. Started 10 games for the Jets last year.
I'm sure when he makes his first catch, someone will bump this thread and rag on the Texans for trading him away.
Most likely a conditional 7th. Thought it might be a player for player deal but they don't really have a TE or interior OL to trade.

The problem with the return game cannot be the return guys. Guys on the team have been successful at other places (Demps, Polk). And guys that didn't do so well here have gone on to be good returners (Jones, Holliday) with other teams.
Different coaches, different teams, different players. On both ends. You think its the field? That's pretty much the only constant variable. (I'm being facetious. Don't take me literal.)
