Details aren't up yet, but the story has been posted on Chron.com... Also, according to McCain, we are currently working on Hadnot's contract with his agent.

Thanks for your support!
wasn't high on this at first but i welcome him and hope for the best
I thought he was good last year. Remember, Cowboy fans also swear that Roy Williams is a better safety than Ronnie Lott was. I've actually had that argument with a couple of them. So, when they rip a player, take it with a grain of salt.
One of the posters posted his stats from the year. If I recall, he gave up 7 TDs and a completion % of 56.6... At 25 years old, I'll take those numbers and hope for some steady improvement.
Texans signed CB Jacques Reeves.
We've heard some positive comments on Reeves, which is surprising. His numbers suggest he was one of the most picked-on corners in the league. Houston badly needs depth with Dunta Robinson hurt, but they should hope Reeves has a small role.

I talked to a Cowboy fan today, he said that he doesn't want Reeves back but thinks he can be decent with a change of scenery.
Looks like Hutchins replacement.

Free-agent pickup from Dallas comes to team with 5-year, $20 million package

The Texans have agreed to a contract with Dallas Cowboys cornerback Jacques Reeves, who was an unrestricted free agent. His five-year deal is worth $20 milllion.
Reeves, who started 13 games in four seasons with the Cowboys, visited with the Texans on Friday and attended the Rockets' victory over Memphis with general manager Rick Smith.
Smith reached the agreement with agent Brian Hamilton today.
At 5-11, 188 pounds, the 25-year-old Reeves is the veteran cornerback the Texans targeted. They're still going to draft a cornerback, maybe two, and they might sign another veteran.
After agreeing with Reeves, Smith turned his attention to Miami guard Rex Hadnot, who also visited Friday. Smith has been negotiating with Hadnot's agent, Brian Overstreet, in an attempt to get the deal done before the center leaves for other visits.

I think his contract guarantees he will make it past training camp. lol
Every year, we wait for the "Big Free Agent Signing" we are promised, and its always somebody like Weaver, Green, or Reeves!

I don't recall Smith or Kubiak promising a "Big Free Agent" signing for this year.IIRC,they specifically said they would be looking for mid-level guys this year.Can't remember last year though.
There's no guarantee Reeves makes it past TC.
I saw the link on the Comical website, but it's gone now. I wonder what that means. It said a 20 mil deal on the headline but not how many years.

guys look at the other contracts going around.. reeves doesnt seem too bad at all
and applepie, actually they promised they (FO) wouldnt be big splashers in FA... but whatever suits your agenda
Wow, big thumbs down from me. That money should've gone to Von Hutchins instead.
Exactly, in fact Rick Smith specifically said that we would not be singing a "Big Free Agent". It's your fault if you didn't believe him.
We get promised playmakers every year, and get a bunch of crap through FA. Great drafts, horrible free agency.
The 49ers had a "great" F/A season last year and they still sucked. I'd rather save our money to sign good draft picks.
