Cool. As long as he doesn't get burned by Jabroni Jones again.

More of an opportunity to insult Jones than Moore.

Yes! Anything to help keep Swearinger from covering ANYBODY

A must read article about a brave young man his compartment syndrome leg injury.
lol!
I like this signing, as well. I think our defense has a chance to be even better this year. QB DEVOURING MONSTER!!!
I really want to see more LBs on the roster, though.
I like this for KJ a lot. Moore should provide the kind of cover that will allow Kareem to play more of a positional corner than just trying to latch onto a WR and follow him throughout a play. Consider it a bit of a poor man's Earl Thomas/Richard Sherman.

This. There's a reason Talib and Harris were though of as a formidable corner duo. Safety help.
This guy along with "dog man" D.J. gives us our starting safeties. Why do we sign another safety now ? For depth they signed Pleasant.

Do doubt! I'm one of the few that still believes in Clowney, but not for this season. We've GOT to get someone on the outside that can rush the passer. It's JJ then______________
At ILB I was hoping for Butler, but there are still a few out there. McClain would be the best, but his off the field would prevent us from him.

3 year 12 million seems imminently reasonable, I'm impressed.

DJ needs to be a sub packages guy up in the box. he is mediocre in coverage
Uncle Rico
Ur apology should be as loud as Ur disrespect was
Hopefully he doesnt lose his damn mind and allow his man to get behind him on a hail mary play in the playoffs.
just joking around a bit. Good pickup.

DJ is not a 3-down safety ? I that's true, that's another ill-advised decision on a 2nd round pick.

Yes which I put on Wade. We don't know facts but IMO Gary and Wade made the picks while they were here

Definitely agree. Nice contract for a above-average 25 year-old free safety, especially this early to the start of the FA window.

He and DQ split the sympathy vote. Both deserve it all.

Defensively speaking the Texans have a really strong unit entering the 2015 season. This could become one of the best defenses in the entire league if a few key players stay healthy like Brian Cushing and Kareem Jackson, and some of the young talent contributes going into their second season. I'm obviously referring to guys like Jadeveon Clowney, Louis Nix and Jeoffrey Pagan. Rahim Moore was just what we were lacking at free safety.
We may now have the best young tandem at safety if D.J. Swearinger ever gets his head on straight and decides to play smart football. Off the field Swearinger is becoming a comedian for all the wrong reasons. Stealing his own truck, not keeping his pitbull on a leash as it bit two of his friends including Clowney who should be resting up. I mean jeez. At least now we aren't as likely to draft a safety with so many other needs especially on offense.

We have the talent on defense to win 10 or 11 games. I expect the Texans to add some dynamic playmakers on offense during this upcoming draft. We will probably invest into the offense during the first three rounds of the draft. Pick #16 in round one will most certainly be used on a wide receiver.I love this move to shore up our secondary. Seems BoB is resigned to the fact that our O is up in the air and decided to focus on D. Hell, if we can force enough turnovers, every game is winnable.
Since he's a safety, I can live with him being mediocre in coverage, but it's his tackling that drives me up the wall. I've lost count how many times he whiffed the tackle because he was so focused on knocking the ball out.
I get that he's always trying to force a turnover, but he needs to concentrate less on that, and more on wrapping the guy up.

I don't know... I sure would like a bada** LB who can cover...

Love this signing.
Not to put a damper on your enthusiasm, which I largely share, but you can't be a complete zero at LB and expect to have the best defense. I know everyone keeps thinking Cushing is going to be 2010 Cushing, but it ain't happening. And OLB? They keep drafting them and keep ending up with zip to show for it. Maybe B'OB can start drafting solid players at LB, because the previous regime had a combo of bad luck with injuries and terrible talent assessment.
Since 2009:
Brian Cushing
Connor Barwin
Darryl Sharpton
Brooks Reed
Whitney Mercilus
Trevardo Williams
Sam Montgomery
Jeoffrey Pagan
Jadeveon Clowney
These guys have performed so admirably that we've had guys like Tarpinian, Dent, Tuggle, and probably a few more I can't remember manning the position. Doesn't fill me with a lot of confidence.

yep. It used to drive me crazy to see Dunta Robinson bounce off guys because he was always going for the 'jacked up' hit. I'd say that he'd fail to get the tackle more than half of the time, and this was the main reason my attitude was good riddance when he left.
The Texans lack of movement with LBs and lack of depth both inside and out is disconcerting. An aggressive 34 has got to have a solid LB corps to be successful.
Hervoyel
BUENO!
No kidding. DJ has no business trying to cover anybody.
Well, this isn't 1988. A good OC or just a team with multiple good pass catchers will just scheme Swearinger into some form of coverage from the pure safety spot. Probably lots more of him at "LB" in the pass defenses.
