Texans and Fantasy: Wide Receivers Edition

Sat, 26 Jul 2008 03:36:54 +1900

Well I took yesterday off as a few of you noticed and there's a reason: I'm the only one running this ship. But I've decided to take a moment out of my vacation (and NCAA '09) to continue my fantasy football preview on the Texans. You're welcome. Tonight, I'm tackling the wide receivers.

Patriots Sign Jerod Mayo

Fri, 25 Jul 2008 19:50:28 +1900

The Patriots Front Office chose not to let the Mayo sit out and spoil. The former Tennessee star signed an $18.9 million dollar contract with $13 million in guaranteed money. Jerod Mayo's salary is a slight improvement over last year's 10th pick, Amobi Okoye of the Houston Texans. Okoye received $15 million, with $12 million in guaranteed. With the learning curve for

Texans expecting nothing less than playoffs in 2008 | Chron.com - Houston Chronicle

Fri, 25 Jul 2008 12:39:38 +1900

For the first time in team history, no one laughed at the Texans when they reported to training camp talking about the playoffs. The Texans are 32-64 in their first six seasons, including 14-18 under coach Gary Kubiak. But last season's 8-8 record and changes made to the roster in the offseason have bolstered the players' confidence and elevated their excitement level. It's playoffs or bust, ...

Quinn Gray: Is he too stupid to play QB?

Thu, 24 Jul 2008 22:56:59 +1900

From Colt Homer over at Naptown's Finest : But I could see Gray passing Sorgi before the Hall of Fame Game. Gray was waived by the Texans for not picking up the system quick enough. That could be a problem since the Colts have a much more complicated system than the Texans. Lorenzen is just a camp body. And a big one at that. Not a good sign. The Texans offense is ...

Five RBs To Avoid On Draft Day

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 19:55:11 +1900

The "running back by committee" strategy employed by numerous NFL teams will decrease the value of many prominent running backs. Ahman Green of the Texans is one example given here by The Scores Report. See which other teams will use this approach, and why you should avoid drafting some of these players.

Texans and Fantasy Football: Tight End Edition

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 16:07:42 +1900

Owen Daniels is one of the most underrated Tight Ends in the NFL. With 97 career receptions, the kid's averaged a little more than a first down everytime he touches the ball (11.5 yds. per reception). Six other tight ends with 90 or more receptions in the past two seasons average 11 yards per reception or more...and these names go fast: Gates, Winslow, Witten, Gonzales, Cooley and Crumpler ...

QUINN GRAY SIGNS WITH COLTS

Thu, 24 Jul 2008 04:45:17 +1900

In a move that could be interpreted as a sign that franchise quarterback Peyton Manning might not be recovered from knee surgery in time for the start of the regular season, the Indianapolis Colts have added a veteran quarterback. And possibly two. Per a league source, Quinn Gray has signed with the Colts. Gray spent his first [...]

Texans and Fantasy Football: Quarterback Edition

Tue, 22 Jul 2008 16:23:50 +1900

Let's face it: the Texans haven't exactly been top-heavy on anyone's draft board. Ever. But that's not to say that the Texans haven't made an impact on the fantasy landscape. Unfortunately most of this impact is derived from a free-agent pickup during a bye-week that happens to pan out (see: Daniels, Owen circa or Williams, Domanik). This year could be different.

Texans Training Camp Battle: The Running Back Committee

Training camp is finally here and FanHouse breaks down the most important position battles heading into the season, team by team. Over Gary Kubiak's last two seasons, the Texans have tried to piece together a running game using players that no other team really wanted. They haven't had much of a choice given all the needs of the team and limited salary cap money. Once again this year, ...

The Texans enter their third training camp under Gary Kubiak with one goal - to reach the playoffs for the first time. Last season, the Texans finished with a franchise-best 8-8 record playing in the AFC South, the NFL's toughest division based on regular-season records. Indianapolis (12-4), Jacksonville (11-5) and Tennessee (10-6) made the playoffs. For the Texans to achieve their goal, they ...

SPORTS Houston Texans: Injuries, Inexperience Cloud Running Back Picture By Matt Campbell It is not an oxymoron to call the Texans' 2007 season a satisfying disappointment. On the one hand, the team was able to exorcise the memories of David Carr, witness the emergence of the much-maligned Mario Williams as a truly dominant defensive end, and post its first ever non-losing season. On the ...

Colts, Texans slated to lead in double sessions

Posted by ESPN.com's Paul Kuharsky Just got my first look at the Titans' full training camp schedule and immediately looked to see how many full-team, double-session practices Jeff Fisher had scheduled. In recent years, based on the heat and whether players report in shape, a lot of coaches have limited how many days they hold two full practices. (If a team's two practices include one ...
