Lots of interesting possibilities. Miller, Forte, Doug Martin are all possible at RB. Mayo, Trevathan, Derrick Johnson at LB are some that stand out to me
What's the cap situation? I think i remember reading that the Texans were supposed to have a ton of space this offseason.

Probably would thrive in a no-nonsense environment... like New England, or whatever BOB is trying to re-create here.
You know, it's bad for the players' livelihoods, but I love love LOVE a league with non-guaranteed contracts so much more. I feel like the slouchers, over-eaters, and undifferentiated don't-give-a-f***'s are more prevalent in the MLB and NBA, where long contracts can just induce the worst behaviors from the players. In the NFL you have some slouches, but they pay the price that's for sure, in terms of years of their contracts that they never get paid for.
Rex Ryan lost his d-line earlier in the season. He's really overrated as a head coach. Mario had been playing his heart out till half-way through this season. Dude would thrive in Wade's system. Too bad they already have Ware and Miller.
I'd gladly take Mario, can't bet on Clowney staying on the field yet plus it is a huge depth upgrade.
I mean he was playing really well as a 3-4 LB his last year here before he tore his pec... He had like 5 sacks in 5 games
Not to mention that the Texans typically do have 4 men at the line with the amount of nickel coverage sets they run.
sack totals dont amount to playing well. he showed promise, but, hes older now, and hes just too big for the 3-4.
