That is what I have been hearing and reading all day, that it was a 2 year deal worth roughly 7-7.5 mil with a 3rd year option....
That was why I asked where the 16 mil for 3 years was coming from...

Because the they "agreed to terms" and didn't sign a contract yet. Once they get a deal signed and sent to the NFL office, someone will leak a copy and we'll find out how much it is and how much is guaranteed.
I'm crossing my fingers that it's a 3 year deal worth 3m, 3m, 10m...
Jason LaCanfora reported the 3 year 16m numbers. He's usually pretty good about getting that stuff right, but not perfect. I'm hoping the 2 year 7.5m report is correct, because that would be a great deal for us.
Hell now I am reading 2yrs $12 mil ...if this is true, ouch...

I was expecting 2 years in the 10-12 million range. So if this is true, I've got no problem with it.
Someone said 2 years 7 mill total... if that's true then ... Rick Smith deserves an award of some sort.

I think the 7 million number is what might be guaranteed. At least that's what I gathered from yesterday.
I don't think the 3 year 16 mill deal that's being thrown around is that bad either. The odds of him seeing that 3rd year is prob slim to none. The only numbers that really matter to me are the cap numbers anyway.
Crap. Sounds like nobody knows for sure and we ain't heard a peep out of the Texans or chirp (a "twit"?) out of Reed.
Craig Roberts (92.1 FM) just said (as of 1:15 pm, 3/21/13) that Reed has not actually signed anything yet.

The Texans don't say anything until the ink hits the paper.
I think everyone knows he hasn't signed anything. They've only "agreed with the terms" of a deal. Working on the verbiage of the deal
There's also a chance that he backs out and signs somewhere else, like Baltimore...
It's rare that a player would do that, but it has happened before.
Really? Wow. Can you provide an example? I would love to hear who has made an agreement and then backed out?

free-agent wide receiver Az-Zahir Hakim on Friday afternoon backed out of a contract agreement with the Kansas City Chiefs, a deal that would have reunited him with head coach Dick Vermeil.
Arian Foster!
agreed with Chicago on one year deal but the Texans lured him away with a 2 year deal.

Got a link for that. I don't remember there ever being an agreement in place with the Bears. They offered their deal, we offered ours and he chose us
That was my thought as well. I was under the impression that Chicago offered a 1 yr deal whereas Htown offered him a 2 year deal because they really wanted him. If memory serves, didn't the team also sign Jeremiah Johnson that year as an UDFA as well?
Yeah...someone mentioned that earlier. :wadepalm:
Complete fail on my part.
Whibbley-O! said:Decided to read some of the Houston fan forums to gauge their reaction. From what I gauge, they are more excited than we are disappointed. Lots of enthusiasm mixed with some people saying "geez, how old is he? no thanks."
I like this quote from that Texans' thread, Post #1749:
>>
Where is everybody getting the idea that Reed is going to be effective roaming over the top? He was an OLB, and apparently they're converting him. Why? Has he done anything to suggest he knows what he's doing? This is a completely different role and people are just assuming he's going to flourish.

:slaphead:
Yes. I really thought Jeremiah was going to be a good player for us, too.

Ed reed has already landed a new crib... a top of the line cardboard box under a 610 bridge.
That was me.
We all look alike.........
Nope...... that's me again.

Are they gonna have some sort of press conference with Ed Reed?
I would think so.
Haha, that's golden. I just couldn't make the connection that Reed --> Ed Reed. It's going to be weird seeing him in a Texans unifrom.
Well there aren't any Pitbull concerts going on anytime soon so hopefully it happens soon.
Reed is not coming. Heading back to Baltimore because he prefers crab cakes to Texmex.
Haha, that's golden. I just couldn't make the connection that Reed --> Ed Reed. It's going to be weird seeing him in a Texans unifrom.
In that case, F' him and the raven he road in on, anyway!
Dude, you need some TexMex crabcakes, or maybe Ed does.

If a Brooks Reed thread goes over 90 pages and 100,000 views we will be sure to let you know.

I just want it to be official.
Hurry up and sign the sheet, Reed!
He's on his way to Houston right now. Just chill outl
