Agree with joker on this one, the extra pick could work out well
I didn't see the option that truly represented my stance
I'll vote "keep him in the starting lineup, let him play out his contract this year and let him walk in free agency and spend that money on someone better"
Considering the last two losses have probably put the Texans in a position that they must win out to make the post season - and I just dont see that happening - D-Rob's inability to cover wont make a whole lot of difference in the grand scheme - Starting him is probably the best option , another team will pick him up in FA. Im not sure how the compensatory picks work but anything that will help that value is good for the team going forward.

I'd say he's our second best corner. Quin is our best corner now, as
the QB's are choosing to throw at Dunta A LOT MORE than Glover. Brice
McCain has tremendous upside, and I like that he's getting his feet wet
this year in the Dime packages.
I can't pick any of that crap. The only response to Dunta Robinson at this point in the game is to finish the season out, offer him what you think he's worth in light of this seasons performance (Hint, it ain't 9 million dollars a year. That's for damn sure), and be prepared to see him walk out the door when some other GM overpays him.
And then find a replacement at a rational, reasonable cost. That means pretty much draft a CB on the first day.
QFT - I've been saying for weeks - pay OD, pay Ryans, and offer DRob market value, whatever that is. And if he doesn't sign that contract within 60 seconds of getting it in his hand, see ya'.

You don't think Reeves is in the top 2? I think he has been our best CB this year.
Reeves has been the best by far I think... Quinn has outplayed Dunta but thats because Dunta is out there more snaps so he's gonna be beat more and give up a lot of catches. I'm fine with Quinn starting for this team next year though.
You gotta wonder if memories of his knee injury pop up whenever he's about to get physical.
Anyway, here's a list of FA DBs this upcoming offseason. Looks like a lot of players will get overpaid.

I've seen Stanford Routt play well with the Raiders, but he's not a top corner.

Cut him.
He was afforded the opportunity to show his value this season and earn a big contract.
FAIL.
Send him the shoes and then cut him at the end of the season.
If Dunta made that INT it could've shifted the momentum in our favor just enough to not have to rely on Kris Brown in the end
yep. But still, that's speculative. Fact is that if KB had made the kick it would have been a tie game going into OT.
(disclaimer: not blaming KB for everything, just his fair share of the loss)
Reeves has been one of the best corners in the league this year. Quin isn't in the top 32, but has been quite solid for a rookie.
D-Rob is giving up 33% fewer receptions, and 31% fewer yards than Glover, despite covering the opponents 1st option for most of the season. In what universe is he being outplayed?
D-Rob has taken numerous poor angles on tackles he should have made that don't show up in receptions/yards stats. I think Quin is absolutely better in this respect. Also Quin covers slot receivers which most often are one-on-one matchups with none to little help from the safeties or linebackers. Yes Dunta is covering the other teams 1st option but he's getting more help to cover those #1 receivers via double/triple teams. So receptions/yards allowed stats don't tell the whole story.
We have no one else to replace him so leave him alone, the person that should be cut is Chris Brown who cost us two games in a row.
None of the above. I would try to sign him as a FS or let him seek his fame and fortune in Cleveland or St. Louis. I'm not a very good position analyzer, but I think he might make a pretty decent FS. He's better as a centerfielder than a man on CB and he brings the wood. It could also make up for the step he lost since his leg injury. If he bitches, bid adeiu and draft a CB.
