Beck could be a silent assassin this season. Most NFL full backs are blockers only. I think Beck will surprise some opponents IF used to his strengths.. as with others such as Tytus and Stingley.

I hope that this is true. But OTAs and minicamp in no way can effectively test his conclusion.

Getting sacked as often as he did damaged his mentals.

I would like to see the practices vs. the Dolphins. I just don't think I could hang in the August heat, anymore. Capers would schedule evening practices back in the day that were much more pleasant. I doubt we see those again.
I hope we have members that attend and give the rest of us a summary. Thanks in advance.

Caserio has been criticized by Steven Nelson among others for wearing vests even in the midst of the heat wave. He's not as stupid as some believe. How does he manage to still keep cool? He keeps his secret close to the vest..............

It's a new bargaining strategy: make fun of the way the guy you're negotiating with dresses and tell the world nobody can trust him.

Like Jalen Ramsey, he wants out, thinking that his value will be realized on the open market. But in Nelson's case.............

Problem is that you can expect this same kind of stuff from Stroud in about 3 years if he's any good and I expect him to be just good enough to try to pull this crap off.

Yeah he’s going about it the wrong way and more and likely he’ll be cut or traded. Maybe that’s his plan all along. Get cut or traded.

Hypothetically speaking, would your opinion of Stroud change if he were to change agents within the next 3 years? I agree, I cannot stand DM, but I feel every player is an individual and I cannot bring myself to judge Stroud on a crime he has yet to commit.
Seems to be a pattern for folks represented by Mullegeta. Not all of them. But when they go ballistic, they go ballistic.
That happens with any agent. It's the player not the agent. Did Nelson change agents because he was advised to play out his contract or because he thought DM could get him more money? Has he ever done something like this before?

With Isaiah Rodgers being cut for gambling the Colts now have a hole at one of their starting CB spots. Could we see the rare in-division trade with Nelson to Colts? Colts would get valuable vet experience and a starting CB.
Texans would presumably get a draft pick and have one less Mulughetta client in the locker room…

yep. There is no way that Mulughetta advocated or signed off on this stunt. He's a successful agent for a reason, and it's certainly not due to antagonizing general managers with moronic social media comments.
Lets see how the next 3 yrs go.
He's already shown bad judgement in the agent he picked, or that he's all about getting paid and not winning championships.
It would be great if you could give them the 3 years before you started all the negativity and pre-I told ya so's
Or at least a game or two

How many professional athletes find themselves an agent who'll prioritize in getting them the lowest valued contract available? Every agent on the market who desires to have a client base.....is going to get his client the most money possible. That shouldn't have to be explained to anyone.
From an Owner/GM standpoint, their job is to convince, by their track record, athletes to remain with the team on good, to very good, team friendly deals so they have the best chance to keep their core group of players together. That was an easy sale in New England and Tampa Bay when TB was leading those teams to SB's. Build a winner and then convince players that money has to go round in order to keep everyone together. Players can be on board with this approach and stay in one place and establish financial roots that will serve them well after their playing days are over.....it's the bigger picture that has served a select few athletes very well.
Who does he hang with?
So does that mean you are going to give him the 3 years? Without the negativity?
Do you have a link to show he hangs around with Watson? I searched and didn’t find anything.
There was that one pic that one time when DM clients were shown together, and he said he looked up to Watson and Vick...
DM clients are tight. You can choose to believe this or not.
Anyways as I've said before, I dont like the person or the player. So any further discussion is pointless. Obviously you like him and all I can say is lets agree to disagree. You will learn in time. Steve Nelson says hi.
That's all it takes... there was one pre-draft also

.....and in time, if it does work out for the Texans.....what will you have learned?
For years you have criticized the Texans for their "Texans worthy" philosophy and not picking players with known character issues. The Texans draft a player without any known character issues and you have an issue with who he hangs with?
When you were advocating for the Texans to draft players with known character issues. Who did you think those players were hanging with? Their Bible study classmates?
