    Other teams have this thing called a draft, too. While the Broncos, Colts and Patriots are adding players in free agency in addition to the draft, the Texans are losing guys left and right, finding no veteran replacements in FA, and seemingly relying on the draft to fill everything. That is awfully reminiscent of the early 2005 offseason blueprint.

    Come on. As if we don't already have injury issues in Houston with the Rockets and Texans... we don't need it to get worse.

    no panic here...i think they peaked already and can't possibly address all their needs given cap space and limited number of draft picks. already made my peace with that.

    this is just kinda embarassing. pretty sure my Dallas friends will be emailing me this weekend with unpleasant thoughts about all this.

    I think we felt the same way with Asumgha
    but we ended up with Joseph and MAnning

    I say have some faith

    Texans don't mind. They'll wait it out. ;)

    If they don't get him, they'll go get some other good kid battlefighter.

    Embarrassed? Nah, I'm not embarrassed. Maybe Rick Smith & co. should but I'm not.

    SMH, this is getting embarrassing. They can't wait on one man while the broncos, colts, patriots, 49ers and even the chiefs are getting better. Its frustrating but all we can do is watch. At least get McCain and Heyward-Bey signed cause one or both could get snatched up this weekend

    Other teams are laughing at us rolling out red carpet only to be held out.

    Apparently Reed had a prior arrangement to attend and told his agent to keep working on a deal.

    @AdamSchefter: Ravens S Ed Reed has left Houston to tend to a previous engagement this weekend. Reed and Texans plan to continue talking.
