    They flipped between the two last year, but expect to shift back to mostly 4-3 this year. They aren't asking Mario to stand up.

    Hopefully the dominoes will start to fall and the Texans will make some moves now.

    I still surprised he didn't look at other teams (if there were any other teams)... good luck to him.

    All 3, Mario, VY and Bush are no longer with their original team....

    Don't be a bitter texans fan. All NFL players should try to get as much as possible. Cause their contracts in general suck, and they are sacrificing their future well being for playing.

    Business is business.

    But Buffalo? We're allowed to lulz.

    I'm confident we have a plan to fill out the o-line, but still... if the draft started right now we'd have a ton of holes to fill. I don't like this feeling. Not when we're still right up against the cap. I thought we'd restructure guys, cut certain guys, etc... sigh.

    They went to Buffalo first to get a good high starting figure and stalled to see if they could get anyone else to match/beat the bid - his agent didn't get the call, so going, going, gone - sold to Ralph Wilson.

    With so much cap space, the Bills can heavily front load the deal and not feel the pain down the road. They win, Mario wins.

    I'll LOL because it's Buffalo. But some posters seem to be hating because he didn't re-sign with the Texans who had no attempt to keep him.
