I have to say I am very excited for the future on defense. We have a great core of players with Mario,Demeco and Duanta that I feel are capable of raising the bar of play here for years to come. But I have been having this vision for how much better this unit could be with a couple key under the rader additions. The texans have money to spend on the cap and thats even before we cut anyone.
In free agecy there are two players I feel the front office should make a strong push for. The first is 26 y/o CB-Ashante Samuel, a vastly underrated playmaking CB out of New England, him added Duante would make for a very young dyanmic opportunistic duo for years to come. Combine that with Petey being able to shift back to his nickle CB position the Texans would be a much improved and maybe feared secondary. The second player 27 y/o DT-Terdell Sands of the Oakland Raiders. If you watched the game on Sunday you noticed him constantly get pressure on Carr and make stops behing the LOS in the run game. The man is huge 6'7 335 and is really athletic for a his size. placing him with Mario on our line would really boost our run defense and also add a key double team clog allow Demeco roam more freely to the ball carrier. Add that with the interior push he can provide it will allow Mario to see less double teams in pass protection ala Kris Jenkins for Julius peppers.
Thoughts?
