    This is better then just getting Aso. I am elated beyond belief.

    Fine become a grammar guardian and avoid what they are saying. I guess I will wait to see what other moves they make, but if all they do is add JJ, I will be disappointed. However if Quinn or KJ is playing on the other side I predict JJ won't be thrown to very much.

    Nnamdi is by far the best CB you can get and I am pissed the texans didn't get him.

    If you look at Johnathan Josephs' wiki page, it hasn't been changed, but if you like at Mannings, they already have it fixed.

    But by your logic getting Nnamdi wouldn't matter either. If they got him I can assure you Quinn or KJ would be on the other side because for $12-$14 they weren't signing anyone else either. And as you said Aso "wouldn't get thrown to very much". And although he is the best CB available, he ain't running across the field and covering both WR's. At least by saving a bit and getting Joseph the Texans were able to also address Safety and make another good signing.

    Danieal Manning - DB - Texans Texans agreed to terms with SS Danieal Manning on a four-year, $20 million contract with $9 million guaranteed.
    It's hard not to love both of Houston's secondary upgrades executed today. Manning is fairly old to be finishing up his rookie contract (he turns 29 in August), but he also appears to be just now coming into his own. Manning finished No. 5 overall in Pro Football Focus' 2010 cover safety rankings, and he fills very hard against the run. He'll start at strong safety for the Texans and be a massive upgrade on Bernard Pollard against the pass. Related: BearsSource: John McClain on Twitter Jul 29, 12:48 AM

    Dude............Joseph was ranked 6th on that site in '09. He was injured a bit last year but he is an excellent corner. Anyone who calls him average needs their head examined.

    If we can re-up Leach, this has been the first truly successful off-season in the history of the franchise. No playoffs, and Kubiak will be incinerated by the heat of hisseat.

    I am very happy with the sum of the deals that were put together. Yes we could have gone for Aso but what would be left with to fill up other holes in our team.

    Let's be honest any damn CB was an upgrade for our team. I think that signing Joseph was a huge upgrade and still left room to upgrade at Safety as well as getting a KR in Manning as well.

    The pairing of these two signings, our draft picks, and existing team I am looking very forward to this season.

    I'd rather see what the undrafted rookie can do.

    Texans might start with field position past the 25???? I never thought I'd live to see the day!
