Antonio Allen is certainly not a lock for this team, but even if he does make it, Andre Hal is a starter for this team. Not sure why people still struggle with this idea, but he played well last year.
He played well. But I think they can use an upgrade at that position. He wasn't anywhere near the top in the league.
Also not carrying 5 running backs and given the injuries we've had I doubt they'll be comfortable with two quarterbacks. Also probably carry five cbs
He played well and while an upgrade to a star player is always preferable, Antonio Allen is not that. Hal is a penciled in starter for this team
It all depends on how Allen recovers. His best season is better than Hal's. I agree he might not make the team like Stevie Brown last year. He too was penciled in as a starter.
The list I have is less than 53 and I didn't include the UDFAs that might make the team. They will get their 3rd QB if it is not Weeden.
Stevie brown was an injured veteran brought in cheap that couldn't get he system and was cut. That's a lot different than Andre Hal, who they drafted and concerted to safety and continually rave about.
they entire draft approach made it apparent that these players were targeted. i think all our draft picks make the team which means the fringe guys better watch out.
"UCLA kicker"? You didn't want to write out Ka'iminoeauloameka'ikeokekumupa'a Fairbairn? LOL I agree that he really could win the kicker job, lots of people thought he'd be drafted.
Has a chance but not a great one. The touchback lost value this offseason and Novak is very accurate. Going to need to be super accurate to beat him out
He was super accurate this season and he can hit from 60. I think his chances are better than you are giving him credit for.
The Texans still have some cap room. Perhaps they can nab some cap casualties for the offensive and defensive lines.
