Agreed on Boston. Would have wanted Bradberry but not for what he signed.

Can we agree that Bill OBrien is the worst GM ever. Holy cow. No first rounders for Clowney and now Hopkins. Maybe we can get JJ Watt for a 3rd. Houston fans must be ready to kill.

I think it was Grant & Danny that said the NFL needs to start drug testing coaches and front office people when discussing O'Brien's moves.

The owner needs to step in at this point. O'Brien should be fired TODAY no matter how much it costs the franchise to do it. That's how bad a GM O'Brien has been. This latest fiasco is just the latest in his incompetent moves.

He probably could have gotten a 1st Round pick in about 2 minutes by calling other teams.

Me 3 on Boston.

If not, would Randall be a fit? Maybe Adrian Phillips? Both likely cheaper than Boston but would they be enough of an upgrade for the money?

I'd also want at least Littleton or Schobert in at LB (maybe even both as we haven't splashed out so far?). Curious if the Rams are trying to do a deal with Littleton as he's ranked 7th in NFL.com's list of FA and there's been no word on any negotiations...

Beyond them the field is thin for our needs. Maybe take Ebron as a 1 year stand in until we can bring a promising draft along? I'd also agree that Anderson wouldn't be a bad add (better than Richardson I'll warrant) but could be expensive for a #2 (or 3 if Sims/Harmon/draft pick surges). Again, if we have the money to burn maybe a 1 year deal if he'll take it?

I reckon O'Brien must play Madden. OTOH they simulated the Hopkins trade and Madden wouldn't allow it.

This thing with O'Brien and Hopkins is starting to get messy.

How does O'Brien still have a job? Worse yet they keep giving him more power.

Apparently, Belichick didn't teach his coaches how to manage a roster (see Josh McD and the Broncos a few years ago).

Texans have won the AFC South 4 times in OBriens 6 years. Arguably the AFC South is the weakest division over the last 6 years .... idk.

I feel for Texans fans.

Was Hopkins heading towards a complete hold out and they wanted to get out in front of it?

Even if that is true, how do you only get that back for him????

He gave away a 1st and 2nd in 2020 and 2021 for Tunsil
Only got a 3rd for Clowney
Now this trade and took on David Johnson's FULL contract.

I’m still disappointed with Hooper going to the Browns. He is NOT the best TE in the NFL, but he was the best TE available. So what if we had to go $500k over the Browns to get him? We were offering Cooper something like $25 mil and he didn’t take it. That was $5 mill over the market, so what’s $.5 mill more for Hooper?

Now we get to pick up one of the pedestrian TE still left in FA. Then we will pick up a pedestrian TE in the draft, because all the good TE will be already taken because the TE draft pool is so shallow.

I hope Kyle Smith can find us a “Chris Cooley” starter from the depths of the draft or UDFA. We need help in the TE ranks. I’m NOT going to get excited about Ebron.
