    As in, they film our own quarterbacks to see which receivers/OL walk off the field with them?? Or they film the opposing quarterbacks in games to see who walks off the field with them?? Talk about ambiguous.....and really not that informative.

    #Texans Notes: improved attention to detail from Hopkins would really benefit Houston’s offense. Poor route execution a problem at times.

    Luckily, he doesn't need to run routes...just tell him to go and throw the ball within 10 yards of him.

    Texans would be smart to sit Clowney until week 1.

    Wouldn't take the chance of not having him or Watt on the field week 1.

    Yeah but they need him ready to go too. He looked awesome in limited snaps last game, I think they might do that again next game only keep him in the game longer. For game 1 they need him on the field pretty much all the time.

    I don't think they limited his snaps at all last game in fact he played more than the rest of the defensive starters... But I agree no need to hold him back, if he is healthy let him go.

    For the most part he was only in on 3rd downs, that's what I meant by limiting his snaps. He played a lot of snaps overall due to how long he was in, but it was still mostly 3rd downs.

    Bergstrom has got a lot to work on:

    I dont remember the first one Jayson is talking about...but the play with Lamar killed me. There were 3 Saints getting blocked by 3 Texans...and it would have basically been pure daylight for Lamar if Bergstrom just turned back and blocked the first Saint he saw...instead, he just runs right into those group of blockers and destroys what could have been a huge play. Really, really dumb, even at first glance...and now that it's pointed out and the frame is frozen, it makes me more disappointed.

    Ian Rapaport: A stunner: Former starting center Bryan Stork is being released by the #Patriots today, I'm told. Crazy.

    Wonder if we go after him with Martin injured?

    PFF: HOW ALL 31 FIRST-ROUND PICKS HAVE PLAYED THIS PRESEASON

    21. Will Fuller, WR, Texans (Notre Dame)

    Snaps: 62

    Key stat: Average depth of target of 14.7 yards—4 yards higher than any other Houston wide receiver

    Running with: First team

    In his first preseason action, Will Fuller wasn’t called upon much. He saw just one target—which he caught for 4 yards—but his workload ramped up in a big way in the second game. In the meeting with the Saints, he saw eight passes sent his way, catching four of them for 73 yards and a touchdown. He will start for the Texans, and they will be relying on him to take the top off opposing defenses.

    22. Josh Doctson, WR, Redskins (TCU)

    Snaps: N/A

    Key stat: N/A

    Running with: N/A

    Another victim of an early injury, Doctson has been sidelined with an Achilles injury since spring, and there is still no timetable for his return.

    23. Laquon Treadwell, WR, Vikings (Ole Miss)

    Snaps: 58

    Key stat: Has receptions on just 44 percent of the targets thrown his way

    Running with: Second team

    The Vikings will be relying on Laquon Treadwell to make a major impact in his first year, but thus far, he has been kept to the second team behind Charles Johnson. Treadwell has caught four passes this preseason, but they all came in the opening game, and he caught none of the four thrown his way in the Vikings’ second outing.

    Weird, I'm pretty sure those guys have bigger hands than Fuller.
