You may say I’m a dreamer but I’m not the only one
Ok so I guess we've talked at great length about the actual impact these two losses have had on the field.
I believe in the coaching on OL that this team has to eventually develop the kind of 5 man unity of thought across our offensive line that we had before these two were no-longer Texans (not necessarily this coming season).
A thought I've been having though is what impact this will have when our linemen approach FA in the future.
Do you believe that seeing these two players perform exactly as the Texans would have hoped in our own system, then move in FA and not live up to their price tag, will lead to us having less competition for the services of OL FA's in the future, or will there always be a team or two out their who believe that a good performer in one system will translate to what they are looking for in the position?
As an aside, does the proliferation of the read-option mean that in the coming years we'll have more competition for our prototypical OL check-sheet in FA and the draft when trying to sign guys?
It seems to have been the case over the development of our version of the ZBS that we've been able to pick up one teams trash and turn it into our treasure.
Even Duane Brown, a first round pick, would look to have been a steal where he was taken.
