Does anyone know of any rookie free agent signings by the Texans... as of yet? Please list them if you know of any.
LB Ben Moffitt, South Florida WR Ryan Grice-Mullins, Hawaii' LB Marcus Richardson, Troy TE Cole Bennett, Auburn CB Josh Bell, Baylor WR Darnell Jenkins, Miami DE Jesse Nading, Colorado State DT Gabe Long, Utah
I'll get the reverse mojo ball rolling by saying, there doesn't look like there is a whole lot there. /this statement should lock up multiple Pro-Bowl appearances for at least one of them.
Cross Josh Bell off that list and add Alabama tackle Chris Capps. Bell signed with the Chargers. Ben Moffitt is the best out of the group by far but likely won't make the team because they have added 3 linebackers this off-season. He was the heart and soul of that great USF defense that had George Selvie, Mike Jenkins, and Trae Williams. Gabe Long was a USC signee but couldn't make it because of grades. He has some good pass rushing skills. These guys are candidates for the practice squad. We have seen in the past that the Texans sign these undrafted free agents and put them in the practice squad and by midseason they are on the active roster and contributing. See Darius Walker, Chris Taylor, and Mike Brisiel.
