    Uhhh... These rankings hold no value to me now that I know Watt was only rated number 12 last year.

    Top 5? That would have been okay. In my opinion, he should have been top 3, no questions asked.

    How did only get 12?

    Don't be surprised if his stats are lower this coming season. I wouldn't be surprised to see Watt and VW occupying as many olinemen as possible to allow others to get to the QB in certain formations or even gameplans.
    Either way, I think we are going to see a beast of a line for Texans.

    It didn't help that we were the worst team in football.

    We were. When Watt was ranked at 12, it was following the 2-14 season.

    Many thanks to Manning.... When he first came to the Texans he really brought a lot to the team and I salute him for that... No one stays a young stud forever.

    That's a little surprising, but good for him for walking away on his own terms. He was one of the biggest free agent signings in our franchise history, and he gave us some solid play for a multiple seasons. Good luck to him in retirement.
