    For those wanting the Texans to get a RB, maybe they'll take a stab at Zac Stacy.

    Wouldn't want him as our RB of the future, but I thought his whole situation last year was bizarre.

    Lit it up for them the 2nd half of 2013, then they seemed to do everything they could to avoid letting him play last year.

    Feel bad for Posey. He went from backing AJ and Hopkins to backing Marshall, Decker, and Devin Smith.

    I hear Drew Brees will be on the market? Do the Texans try to get him?

    What would we have to give up? For the right price, I would bite.

    He seems to be a nice change-of-pace back to compliment the Foster/Blue running style

    Bowles really trying to upgrade that offense. Marshall, Devin Smith, Zac Stacy, Stevan Ridley, Devier Posey. Ryan Fitzpatrick might have something to work with.

    James Jones is available.

    Wonder if the Texans go after him.

    We have plenty WR's: Strong, Hopkins, Shorts, Washington, Martin, ...

    I don't think they are going to bring him in.

    Looks like Collins has been cleared; he's visiting some teams. Texans interested?

    I guess the question is, what kind of money is Collins looking for. I don't think he'll get first round money even though that's where he would've gone if not for the situation. But it's not like he'll be getting normal UDFA money either.

    This is probably important to keep in mind when trying to project how Shorts might do this season for the Texans. It means he only had 69 catchable targets last season and he caught 53 of them for 557 yards. That makes it sound a lot better.

    As much as it hurts me to say this but the cowboys have the best line in football. I'm still trying to figure out why the Texans didn't draft a single o lineman
