EDITOR’S NOTE TXCleaver graces us with his presence once again, this time to profess his love for undrafted rookie free agent wide receiver Terrence Toliver, whom the Texans recently signed. Cleaver is an admitted LSU homer, but when sober he has an uncanny ability to drop rabid allegiances and give real, unbiased insight. He probably [...]
UPDATE: In addition to earlier news that Anderson signed with Denver, Amobi Okoye has signed with the Chicago Bears. The tough cuts had to come at some point, and today – they came. I know, I know – Amobi Okoye was a bust. He was. I can’t deny it… plus he really had no natural [...]
As of the time I post this entry, Vonta Leach has yet to decide what he’s going to do. Reports have circulated that there are four or five teams in on him, and other reports suggest the market is not nearly as hot for him as he would like. There’s just no way to know. [...]
WHAT IN THE HOLY LIVING HELL OF THE WORLD IS GOING ON HERE!??! Earlier today on Twitter, I asked aloud – would Texans fans rather have the CB/S combo of Nnamdi Asomugha/Gerald Sensabaugh, or the combo of Johnathan Joseph/Danieal Manning. I said I’d rather have Joseph/Manning, but at no point did I ever think it [...]
UPDATE Punter Matt Turk has signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars. After all the talk and bluster from Bob McNair about how the Texans were going to be aggressive players in the free agent game, fans had every reason to be skeptical. As reports leaked Wednesday and Thursday that the Texans were pushing hard for Nnamdi [...]
UPDATE: Reports have now surfaced that the Texans have agreed to terms with backup QB Matt Leinart. This seals the fate of one Dan Orlovsky, who will become nothing more than a camp body. He will be one of the first cuts the Texans make if they need to dump salary in order to sign [...]
Next to the draft (maybe more so than the draft?), there isn’t a better time during the NFL offseason than the start of free agency. Except that, this year – it’s free agency, undrafted free agency, re-signing of team free agents, ramping up training camps, and who knows whatever else. Obvious early topics are going [...]
I’ve been a vehement defender of Kevin Walter in the past. Over the course of the last couple of years, a litany of Texans fans have been screaming for the team to either replace Walter with more of a playmaking WR, bump him down the depth chart, or move him to the slot. In every [...]
John McClain went on the radio this morning and said that there’s no way the Texans can sign Nnamdi Asomugha or a top free agent because of the team’s cap situation. First of all, consider the source. McClain is certainly well-connected and often has the inside scoop… but cap talk is not his area of [...]
Hi all. It’s been a while. You’re going to be seeing a lot more of me now that the lockout appears to be drawing to a close. Real life has really been getting in the way lately, but rather than burn myself out by discussing ridiculous non-issues, I thought I’d take a nice long break [...]
