    Take it from someone who's spoken to them and their family members numerous times. Amobi and Osi are also really close but Osi and Nnamdi don't know each other too well.

    From what I know, Amobi and Nnamdi are far close than anybody else on the Texans.

    That bodes well for the Texans (and Cowboys I guess).

    If a guy like adrian foster who wasn't even drafted can become a superstar I think anything is possible. Look at the Cb for GB. There are plenty of cases were a scrub on one team becomes a star on another.

    Yea he's a bust considering the all pros and pro bowlers taken after him, that being said I wouldn't mind seeing him cut. I wouldn't want his salary taking up space to sign a FA like Joseph or Aso.

    Has been really disappointing, kind of like the Texans in general, has not lived up to expectations. Likely to be traded, demoted, or cut.

    I understand and somewhat agree with your point, but those are terrible comparisons. Arian Foster busted out the moment he got playing time. Tramon Williams was actually on the Texans practice squad and was never given the chance. Okoye has started since his rookie year and has shown nothing.

    Okay, so let's wait to cut Okoye until after we've signed Asomugha

    Now we're thinking!:)

    (I'm an Amobi fan so I hope they keep him but pro sports is a business and sentimentality is best left out of it.)

    Amobi's gotta be liking his odds of being re-signed now.
