It really is uncommon for players to berate their former teams after leaving. In fact, most thank the fans and the franchise for their time in the city. The fact that the Texans have had a rash of players making derogatory and uncomplimentary comments after they leave, suggest things may be a bit more bizarre down on Kirby, than originally thought.

Mercilus was been activated for the next Packers game. In order to do so because of numbers, KeKe had to be inactivated.
Omenihu played 12 games
15 solo tackles.........1 assist tackles............0 sacks...........0 forced fumbles
KeKe played 13 games
16 solo tackles..........6 assist tackles...........3 sacks...........1 forced fumble
Wonder if we hear KeKe doing an Omenihu act.

There are quite a few players who stated they didn't enjoy their time with the Patriots, but winning tends to mask a lot especially if you are winning SBs.
Losing brings out the full mantra that winning can sometimes hide.

Amazing how we’re always skeptical because of the sources we get info from, “who’s the source”, “are they reputable”, but then it comes straight from the player’s mouths and we still question it.
Like Lucky said, if it were just one player you could write it off as sour grapes. But Omenihu is at least the 3rd player this year (Cobb, Cunningham) who have pretty much had the same claim.
Smoke, fire, yadda yadda.

Listening to Omenihu's quote. I remember in the preseason they had him at 3rd string and Culley was asked about it and it appeared he wasn't even aware a depth chart was printed and distributed to the media. I guess they were trying to motivate him and it ended up insulting him. Then multiple games being deactivate and he perceived it as them playing mind games with him and that might have led to him being "disruptive".

It’s not surprising. I don’t think it matters that much. I think this is more of people looking for something to be outraged about.
We are going on our 4th HC in 3 years. OB, Romeo, Culley and now the new guy.
The 3rd GM in 4 years? I lost track.

Now back with the Green Bay Packers thanks to some negotiations from Packers quarterback and quasi-GM Aaron Rodgers, Cobb had some interesting things to say when asked about his return to a championship-contending team.
"I can breathe again. I've seen the other side," Cobb said on Thursday to reporters. "I'm excited to be back here and I'm excited, I'm smiling. It's funny, my teammates said 'you act like you just got out of prison,' and I said 'well...'."

Things are changing down on Kirby, people are usually resistant to change. Particularly when the inmates had been running the asylum for the last 6 yrs.

I knew that it wasn’t new news to you because I know that you knew the new news was old news. The new part is people think it is new news and recycle it as new news when in fact it is old news.
Yes. I know what you mean.
It's really pretty simple. It's the folks contorting themselves with pretzel logic that are making it more complicated than it needs to be.
This meme says a lot. The Texans front office is full of bosses, not leaders.
Leadership in the NFL traditionally comes from two places: head coach and star players.
The Texans have neither. So they have a boss GM trying to fill the vacuum and an unscrupulous character coach trying to dictate it from the top down.
Until that power vacuum is filled with a reputable head coach - and by reputable I mean someone that has earned it - and players that can lead by example on and off the field, they will consistently have a dysfunctional team dynamic that will be unlikely to produce successful - i.e. winning - results.
This isn't rocket science, and the NFL has 100+ years of history of examples of how to do it. Unfortunately, boss men gonna' boss, and corporate son never gonna' inspire anyone. The Texans front office is lost in its own hubris.

I am confused by your picture. Are you expecting the HC to play football? Because based on the picture the only way for him to lead is to get on the field with the players.
How many of the complaining guys that have been let go were here before Caserio got here? It's common sense that says you get rid of guys that dont buy into your program and replace them with guys who do buy in. I will give you an example of a few guys that were here before Caserio that have bought in and most likely will be here for awhile. Greenard/Martin/Blacklock. Guys like Reid/Cunningham/Charlie O/Cobb/Roby etc... were more vet guys that were used to doing business the BOB way and didn't want to change and do things the way Caserio wants them done and poof they're gone. These are the types of guy that were late to meetings, didn't practice or as Culley said didn't do things the way his staff (Lovie) wanted them done. Notice how most of these guys were on the defensive side of the ball and how much the defense improved without them. That's not a coincidence. IMHO
Most of them Caserio replaced with upgrades like KGH/Cunningham, Thomas/KGH, Collins/Charlie O, Mercilus/Greenard So good riddance and good luck to them all in their future endeavors.

Rick Smith was GM in name only. He was given a faux title so people would take his calls (on behalf of McNair and Kubiak). In reality Smith started as admin assistant to Bob McNair and Gary Kubiak. Smith's job was to do what he was told. He was fairly good at it and why he was initially liked so well by McNair and Kubiak. That was up until Smith went, et tu Brute, on Kubiak.

The Current State Of The Texans’ 2022 Salary Cap

Some N.F.L. Teams Face a Financial Cliff Despite Raised Salary Cap
The New Orleans Saints and Green Bay Packers, beset by hefty long-term contracts, will be forced into personnel decisions in 2022.
By Mike Tanier
Dec. 15, 2021
The N.F.L. salary cap is more like a predatory lending agreement than a hard-and-fast budget restriction. It is filled with loopholes that allow teams to overspend lavishly and push the financial consequences years into the future. Inevitably, however, the bills come due.
The salary cap is expected to grow in 2022 to $208.2 million, the maximum figure agreed upon by the N.F.L. and its Players Association in May. That’s a 14 percent increase from this year’s cap and great news for most of the league. The New Orleans Saints, however, are in danger of seeing much of their roster repossessed. The Saints, whose Week 14 victory over the Jets lifted their record to 6-7, have so many hefty long-term contracts on their ledger that they are currently an estimated $61 million over the 2022 cap, per OverTheCap.com.
Future cap estimates can be misleading: A team that is a few million dollars in the red can actually have few fiscal worries. A $61 million shortfall, however, cannot be made up by restructuring some contracts and cutting a few veteran backups.
The Saints’ long-term financial situation is actually worse than the raw numbers suggest. The only quarterback on their payroll beyond this season is Taysom Hill, 31, a career backup/gadget specialist/receiver/punt returner best suited to the run-heavy offensive philosophy favored by service academies. Jameis Winston, who led the team to a 5-2 record as a starter before his season-ending knee injury, will be a free agent at the end of this season, as will Trevor Siemian, who replaced Winston before giving way to Hill.
Hill led the Saints to victory over the Jets mostly by handing the ball off or plunging into the line himself, and he could conceivably enjoy modest success if surrounded by a pile-driving offensive line, outstanding playmakers and a stout defense. Unfortunately, the perennial Pro Bowl offensive lineman Terron Armstead is also an impending free agent, as are many of this year’s starters at receiver and on defense.
The Saints cannot even lighten their future debt load by trading the two-time All-Pro receiver Michael Thomas, who is on currently the physically unable to perform list with an ankle injury and may also be at odds with the organization. In fact, trading Thomas could make things worse, because the Saints would immediately be on the hook for the remaining $22.7 million from his 2019 signing bonus, which is currently amortized across the length of his contract. Also, trading an outstanding player to make ends meet is like selling your car for grocery money.
No matter how creative it is in its accounting, New Orleans will be forced to part ways with many productive starters in 2022. It’s a good thing Hill has experience at multiple positions, as he may be forced to play them all simultaneously next year.
Most of the N.F.L. sighed with relief when the robust 2022 cap estimate was announced. The salary cap is tied directly to league revenues, which fell drastically in 2020 when Covid-19 pandemic restrictions resulted in empty or limited-capacity stadiums. The cap decreased from $198.2 million in 2020 to $182.5 in 2021, and it would have fallen further had the league and the players’ union agreed to spread revenue shortfalls across two years, lest teams be forced to field penny-pinching rosters consisting solely of irreplaceable quarterbacks, minimum-salary rookies and accounting department interns.
Next year’s cap increase leaves just three teams besides the Saints in the red. The Minnesota Vikings are $7 million over the cap but can easily restructure some contracts and continue their traditional state of bland mediocrity. The Cowboys are $12 million over the cap, but quarterback Dak Prescott and other top performers are locked into long-term deals, so it will just take a touch of Jerry Jones’s financial necromancy to keep their first-place roster intact. The Packers are $39 million over the cap but may solve their problem by trading quarterback Aaron Rodgers and starting over: the football equivalent of downsizing after a messy divorce, or perhaps renouncing earthly possessions to forage for berries in the wilderness.
On the other side of the ledger, the Miami Dolphins lead the N.F.L. with $77 million in 2022 cap space; the Los Angeles Chargers are second with $73 million. Gaudy future cap figures can be as misleading as dire ones: A team with millions in future dollars to spend often has no one on the roster worth spending them on.
The Dolphins (6-7), however, are enjoying a five-game winning streak behind the emerging second-year quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, while the Chargers (8-5) are led by Justin Herbert, already one of the league’s brightest young stars in just his second season. Both teams will be able to bid for the services of players that teams like the Saints are forced to shed. Free agent spending sprees don’t often make teams better, but salary purges almost always make them worse.
The Saints spent their way into this predicament by keeping their veteran nucleus together during
Drew Brees’s final seasons. In fact, $11.5 million of next year’s shortfall is “dead money”: the amortized leftovers of bonuses paid to Brees years ago while the Saints were balancing their budget like a unicycle on a tightrope.
The Saints went 49-15 and won the N.F.C. South four straight times from 2017 through 2020, so the franchise likely has few regrets about its financial choices during Brees’s golden years. They may wish they had devoted the 2021 season to more intensive credit repair, however. The Saints lost five straight games before defeating the Jets, and they visit Tom Brady and the Buccaneers (10-3) on Sunday night. Even if New Orleans manages to stagger into the playoffs, it will be an unsatisfying coda to an era of excellence, and the Saints will be paying for it for years to come.
Not too many years, mind you. The league’s 11-year, $110 billion media rights agreements with various broadcasters takes effect in 2023. The salary cap will then blast into orbit, and every team — even the Saints — will be able to go back to spending money like there is no tomorrow.

Agreed,
You think Easterby does the same thing RS used to do? Until Caserio got here I would agree with you. Now it's obvious to me Caserio's making the final calls. Easterby may say something like hey Nick will you do me a favor and interview McCown he's a really sharp guy an I think you guys will hit it off well. Caserio says sure and interviews him. Doesn't mean Caserio is going to hire McCown as his HC. Although if McCown impresses Caserio I could see Caserio hiring McCown as a Quaily Control guy or a QB coach.
Good job moving the post. I dont know how to do this.
Some posters need to read the last paragraph.
As far as the Texans go, trade Derrick if you can. If you cant then cut Cannon and a few other of the FA's you signed last offseason. Then add some low cost FA's like Mack/Ross Dwelley/ Fill in the S positon.
It appears if you hold onto Tunsil next yr, when the cap goes up and all of the Mercilus/Cobb/Cunningham contracts plus a Derrick trade that the cap space will be available to sign just about whoever will be willing to come to Kirby.
This is after adding to yrs of adding Star/solid level players in the draft. The future after reading these articles does appear very bright.
From the article linked above:
Caserio converted $15 million of Tunsil's salary last year into a bonus that's spread over 3 years. That overpriced cap hit is as much on Nick as it is O'Brien and Easterby.
Shouldn't you know that if you're writing an article specifically about the salary cap situation?
Trading Watson, Tunsil, and Cooks would create an additional $42.5 million of cap space, giving the Texans close to $60 million. But, it can't all be spent on free agents. The Texans finally have decent draft resources, and it will cost around $15 million of cap room to sign what they have. Add in whatever picks (and/or players) the Texans receive in the trades mentioned, and that could add up to an additional $10 million in cap space.
So rather than a cap number north of $75 million as the author suggests, the Texans will have closer to $35 million to spend in free agency. Including re-signing guys that were on one year deals like Grugier-Hill, Desmond King, etc. There will be a lot of roster spaces to fill. So I don't anticipate Caserio going hog wild on free agent pickups, this time around. Think more street free agents and UDFAs this year.

Are we going to be in the running to attract a premier free agent next year? No. And probably not the following either.
Continue to build through the draft, dump dead weight, and the cap will solve itself.
And RS still wasn't good at his job.
Look at his drafts past the 2nd rd.
Man can you imagine if RS had run last yrs draft? That would've been very entertaining.
Looking at the post CnD made this morning in the HC thread, all of the Mercilus/Cunningham/Roby/Cobb dead money comes off of he books and if Caserio can trade Derrick that huge money will come off the books to after next yr. The cap also should be going way up after the NFL decided to get in bed with the gaming industry.
So in the 2023 offseason there should be plenty of cap space available. It just took a couple of yrs to cleanup the mess BOB/Easterby made.
Plus on top of this there should be 6-8 star level/solid starting level players added through the draft. This is in addition to what was added in FA/Draft last offseason. Just gotta hope Mills is the guy and he can stay healthy. Fixing the OL this offseason would make for a great start. But the future looks bright. IMHO

Also fails to mention that at the end of 2021 season the Texans only had 28 players under contract for 2022. The fewest number of signed players in the league. $35MM to sign 25 players will not go very far. 2022 will be much like 2021 and the rearranging of deck chairs on the Titanic. Only 2022 will be worse because the File Clerk does not have 5 contracts he can restructure like he did in 2021. If you liked 2021, you're going to love 2022.

Do you think he will be able to sign 10 guys around the vet FA min?
If he can do this I bet he can find 3 guys that are the Malik Hooker/Jeff Wilson/JordanWilkins/Ross Dwelley's of the world. Not star level players but guys that can play and have starting experience and are solid upgrades over last yrs team. As more players are added through the draft and after next yr the cap is cleared, these will be the types depth pieces that will really help the team withstand injuries.
That's a good thing. Most of this mess should be cleaned up by 2023. As long as Nick doesn't do a lot of stupid deals this offseason.
You might want to go read CnD's posts over in the HC search thread.
Only 1 more yr to go before the cap is cleared.
If Caserio can trade Derrick before March 20th then there should be around another 25 mil in cap space available THIS offseason. I dont see this happening though.
Just as I've been saying all along. I was going to take a couple of yrs to clenup the mess that BOB/Easterby made. Good news is that the Texans will have 2 classes of high draft picks by the time the cap stuff is cleaned up.
I know fans dont like to go through a rebuild. But it had to happen the minute Buzbee decided bring out Derrick's dirty laundry. I may be the only poster who thinks this but the team will be in a better place going through the rebuild 3 yrs from now than if Derricks dirty laundry hadn't gone public.

I read it. Waving a magic wand that will make the salary cap all better is not so much my worry. A lack of a good fiduciary and irresponsible fiscal decisions are. Plain and simple, so far, since the Preacher Man and the File Clerk have arrived there has been a basket full of poor reasoning and flawed thinking. This flawed thinking has been evident in just about every area of player acquisitions, contracts and development. In regard to the article, I need to see more and further confirmation than just an opinion piece by an ad hoc reporter. That aside, it is still irrelevant because convoluted thinking is still convoluted thinking regardless of what the salary cap is or is going to be. The only thing we know at this point is the File Clerk has been very bad at trying to manage the salary cap. And we have seen nothing, nothing at all, that suggest this about to change. It's part of the File Clerk PROCESS.

If the File Clerk behaves in the same manner and displays the same irrational thought processes with trades and draft picks in 2022 as he did in 2021, the salary cap will be of little importance. Right now, the hinderance of the salary cap is just preventing him from making even bigger mistakes. The only thing we know at this point is the File Clerk has been horrible, terrible and awful at managing the salary cap.
