    Yes!!! Harris has been crap from the minute he stepped onto an NFL field. This cut is long overdue, but we can finally move on from that experiment.

    What a waste. I guess we all saw it coming, but you just hoped that he would turn the corner being such a high pick. These type of wasted picks have really caught up to the Texans.

    I really hope we can at least keep Marcus Williams on the PS.

    We can't blame this all on Rick. We all know by now how much power the previous coaching staff (whether it be Kub or Wade) had over drafting and roster control. Yes, he deserves some blame, but who are we to conclude that it was all his doing?

    Me too. I pull for these undrafted players from small schools. He played decently in the little playing time he got.

    Give him a year on the practice squad with more coaching and he could be like Bouye.

    Along with the issues with Kubiak/Schaub, what a perfect tweet to explain why the Texans fell off a cliff so quickly in recent seasons.

    How does Rick Smith still have a job after things like this?

    You might be disappointed. If OBie is to be believed, he will give equal emphasis to offense, defense and special teams. Keo might make the team since he is a good special teams player.

    Wow, that would qualify as a surprise, IMO. Wonder if this means they think Nix is ready to step up or if it was just a numbers thing?!?

    He was able to convince McNair that he had no power and Kubiak made all the decisions.
