Free Agent Activity involving Texans 2011

from rotoworld:

ESPN's Chris Mortensen says that Texans will "probably" make free agent Nnamdi Asomugha the biggest offer.
Interesting. For most of the offseason, Houston media speculated that the Texans wouldn't be willing to break the bank for Asomugha despite a desperate need in the secondary. The question now is Asomugha willing to play in Houston? He wants to get into acting (Jets) and has also been linked repeatedly to the Cowboys and Eagles. Jul 26, 9:27 AM

I saw this last night and I was thinking that Mason could be a good replacement for JJ. I seem to recall that he has pretty good hands.

Any thoughts on that?

I know JJ is inconsistent.

But, I just rewatched the second half of the Ravens game & JJ was on. He did drop a couple, but he made some awesome plays.

I swear I was watching the best freak'n team in football. Offense & defense, the only Raven's score in the second half was a Kick off return.

Like I said, I only watched the second half (for a reason).
 
An hour and 10 mins have passed and no word on us agreeing with a FA yet. Not being impatient because I know how close to the vest we keep things but just wondering if anyone has heard anything else other than UDFAs.

Since the players can't actually sign until Friday, I am not expecting a mad frenzy of agreements to start flooding in immediately.

I think most teams are worried about getting their UDFA's and their own FA's right this minute.

Isn't it normal for the top FA to have a deal day 1? I remember Hayneworth signed basically at midnight of FA period.

FA's can't officially sign till Friday, but they could have an agreement in place and that's what's probably happening with a lot of these guys now.

Hearing a ton about trades though. Kolb to AZ for DRC and a draft pick is one rumor, and Kyle Orton to the Dolphins for a defensive player and some draft pick(s) is another I'm hearing.

Hasselbeck is about to get overpaid by the Titans.

I'm going to hate Hasselbeck to Kenny Britt. I know we can't sign anyone until Friday but we should at least hear if we came to terms with anyone. Even our players we need to re-sign. Also I would've liked to hear if we made any trades (Okoye).
 
Allstar said:
I'd honestly rather Hasselbeck sign with Tenn than McNabb, who is their apparent plan B.

Same here. I like Hasselbeck as a player too but he's obviously on the downside of his career arc.

Right now the Titans QB rotation goes Jake Locker, ??????, Rusty Smith. I love the NFL.
 
Kolb to Arizona makes sense and something that's been rumored for a while now. Hope to hear more updates throughout the day.

That's how much I'm hip then. I went and clicked on follow Adam Schefter and a pop up said I had to set up an account.

Twitter has a lot---and I mean a LOT---of idiocy, but damn, there's a ton of solid news on it.

Yup, I'm getting it straight from the horses mouth following nothing but players. No media of sorts spinning it or hearing from sources from Ethiopia.
 
Can someone post the twitter handles of the top people to follow?

Adam Schefter -
Chris Mortenson -
Jason LaConfora -
Miley Cyrus -

Am I missing anyone?
 
Also @espn_aflsouth, @profootballtalk, @darrenrovell (for sports business), @buccigross, @nfldraftinsider

Too many guys.

MT great stuff on Texans today RT @SportsMT: @davidcanter on @sportstalk790, E Weddle in talks w/ several teams.Texans "there is interest"
 
by Brandon Williams - Newman could be CB target for Texans

The Texans will keep an eye on what the Cowboys do with CB Terence Newman, who would count $10 million against Dallas' cap this season. Newman may not survive the Cowboys salary cap purge, which would make him an affordable fit for the Texans if the former Pro Bowler hits the open market. Texans RapidReports

When I think Terrence Newman, I think of this

That's because....

When you're a Jet,
You're a Jet all the way
From your first cigarette
To your last dyin' day.

When you're a Jet,
If the spit hits the fan,
You got brothers around,
You're a family man!

You're never alone,
You're never disconnected!
You're home with your own:
When company's expected,
You're well protected!

Then you are set
With a capital J,
Which you'll never forget
Till they cart you away.
When you're a Jet,
You stay a Jet!

I think Hass is alot better for Tenn than McNabb. I think McNabb has deteriorated badly. I think Hass still has plenty of skill, just injured alot the last 2 years. If he is healthy is good for them.
