    Should learn a lot playing next to Hopkins and catching dimes from Deshaun. If Fuller stays healthy he can settle in as the number 3 without too much pressure. Very exciting.

    It took this post to make this a 2 page thread. Nobody gives a **** about the Texans, lol.

    Can't coach size and speed. He'll be interesting to watch. I think he's supposed to have good long speed (4.42) that can run an above average 9 route. Hopefully he can develop his route tree and become a good redzone threat. I think David Culley has some nice clay to work with here. I wonder how Isaiah Coulter is doing?

    Speak for yourself. No one is forcing you to post here. Go find another team.

    Lol. Cal’s getting moody again.

    Speak for myself? I can’t over the roaring silence.

    If this team and organization is SO BAD and will never get any better, why waste your time? Why make yourself miserable?

    I’ve made 2 posts in this thread and neither of them involve me saying that they would never get any better.

    I’d like to see the Texans be relevant again but I was just pointing out the obvious, people’s interest is way down.

    The lack of a quarterback to getting him the ball is going to put a little snag in his excellence moving forward

    I like the player. Would have preferred reaching for him in the 3rd round instead of picking a project QB and trading 4th rounders to move up.

    I came in with high hopes for Nico, but have failed to see anything special from him. Any chance he can still breakout and become an above average Wr?

    Weird bump. He’s been the best receiver this year with a crappy qb and equally crappy oc.

    Get him an actual qb first and he will shine.

    Nico is probably the fastest receiver on the squad. Has a great body to take the hits and play big vs smaller dbs on 50/50 balls. He makes the most sense to fully utilize CJs arm on single coverage and shots down the field. Hope he comes back a better player looking to break through!
