If the Texans can get Schobel, it would be great as long as they don't mortgage the future. Cushing and Schobel would basically be coming in at the same time.
How would our future be mortgaged by bringing in Schobel on a one-year pro-rated deal?? We just brought in Denney AND Ogunleye....two guys over the age of 30, and neither one of them with the track-record that Schobel has. I agree that Antonio has been playing at a very high level so far, but adding depth on the lines is never a bad thing....especially when you're bringing in a perennial Pro Bowler like Aaron.
There was concern before the season about Schobel taking snaps away from Connor Barwin and slowing his development. That's obviously no longer an issue and if he came back, I don't think anyone would have an issue with him taking snaps away from Jesse Nading.
Not Schobel related so sorry for lumping it into your thread but Texans worked out a few guys . Former Browns LB David Veikune Former Steelers DL Doug Worthington DL Boo Robinson DT Amon Gordon
I played in the same Division in high school as Doug Worthington. He's from Western New York (not exactly a hotbed for football talent). I never actually played against him, just remember coming out of high school, he had good size and a good motor for a DE. He should be about 23 (Edit: Googled him, and he's exactly one day older than me...23). Went to Ohio State. Saw some action, and I believe started a year or two. I don't think he ever really turned heads in college, and has probably made it thus far in the NFL due to the college he comes from.
here goes my post you ready??? 1.3 different sources (plus friends of those sources) are saying aaron will be here next week 2.some of them are saying we need to beat cowboys to make him sign officially 3.his parents resturant has terrible reviews,so im not driving out to columbus for a cold limited buffet aaron/smith/okoye/williams eh? im still worried about depth at rb(slaton sucks and we should have jereimiah johnson) and cb (kareem is getting creamed)
Dude, after the series of stink bomb posts you dropped in the last Texans gameday thread, you have a lot of gall to even show your face around here. No more predictions, or "analysis" from you.
Worried about RB and CB depth? Why would that even matter? I thought we were going 4-40 and Schaub was going to drop dead.
I used to troll certain threads, or posters...but man do you take trolling to a whole new level. I actually get a physical reaction of rage when I read your posts. Such a shame too, because there sometimes are moments when you show slight levels of intelligence. But those are drowned out by pure unadulterated idiocy. And The Schobel restaurant isnt half bad, you just cant handle the number 2 you get after it.
