Well...Injuries were a concern when he was drafted.

Now we've got another 2nd rounder that won't be contributing. When is the staff/front office going to learn you've got have contributions from high picks to be successful?

Concussion issues on Stork must have been bad if they knew they'd be without Martin all season and weren't interested.

I'm on the horn with Matt Birk and Jeff Saturday; surely both want to make a comeback right? Oh....they're both 225 now? Nevermind.

we should have done more to keep Jones, dude wasn't a Pro-Bowler, but he was pretty rocksteady.

I will never understand some of you. He had an ACL injury in college but wouldn't say he was an injury waiting to happen.

Freak play in practice where the piled gets pushed against him and he gets rolled up on.. It's football.

I trust the coaching staff to get manage this situation.

The sky isn't falling

Jones was over-rated and you were paying to much for what you were getting. Price tag too much. But whatever

Injuries are going to happen along the OL. Not a front office mistake at all. Just a part of football.

I'm not saying he was a huge red flag, but his knee injury in college was a pretty big one and one that many think has hindered his athleticism a bit.

And it wouldn't be a big deal if this team didn't have a recent history of 2/3 round picks contributing diddly squat.

I think the Texans have to make a trade to get another Center

funny stuff. well done.

That's such a BS statement. I am sorry. He missed one season came back and played well.. Brights ass kid too.

He moved well at the combine and looked great at practice. His athleticism isn't an issue.

I guess for some of you, be happy isn't wasn't his ACL..

Acl has little to do with a high ankle sprain. I am the biggest Smith critic, but this one isn't on him.

Was out the same leg?

What a shlt show.

It'll be a miracle if Brock makes it to the BYE week.

Read the last part of Ian's tweet. Very telling. It's 9-12 month recovery. Texans have learned it does no good to rush these things.

Come on 07, leave the bleeding on the stros board. This had nothing to do with his college injury. He was looking like a steal before this new injury.

Watt should practice next week if all goes well

What are the chances he starts week 1? From my perspective, it seems low.

60-40 he doesn't play.. Will know more next week, if he gets to practice. That would tell us a lot

we need to deal watt for an entire offensive line before he self destructs.

yeesh, the news keeps getting worse. Now we're down to 3 of 5...for the first 6 weeks of the season:

LT - Duane Brown

Man what a crappy blow losing Martin. I hope our short routes are awesome because Brock isn't going to have a lot of time to throw.

bilbo,

how does an OLman play effectively with a torn quad? he might play. but there is no way he's going to be right all year.
Ag_07

Techinically he won't be playing with a torn quad. It's been fixed.

He's recovering from a torn a quad. It's not still torn.
