Texans should prep a three year 0-48 plan to rebuild. With watson, presumably gone, who do you even market as your best player? Are the heb ads going to just be Toro eating ice cream at Scott's house? The gap between my interest in the texans and my interest in my own fantasy football team is the size of the grand canyon and growing.

Julio's biggest liability is availability. If he is on the field and healthy, he's a huge asset, if not, they still didn't give up much in order to add a big name with big play potential. Solid move for the Titans and I hate it. lol

Apparently the plan was to take Mond with that third round pick.

That turned out quite well for Mond, I'd say.

I'm not sure there would have been enough mops to clean up all of the head explosions on this board if they had picked him

The funny part to me is this means Caserio was looking for "best QB available" rather than anything else... he was going to take a QB even if both Mond and Mills were off the board.

If we were truly going to draft a QB no matter what (which is stupid of course), I'd rather have Mond then Mills

Just saw a post saying no minicamp, team feels they got want they needed out of OTAs.

I.e. they can't fine Deshaun now.

Seems like the team is jumping through hoops to help him out.

I would too, but I like Mond enough that I don't want him subjected to this joke of an organization

yep, the key for the Titans is to keep Julio healthy for the playoffs.

I'd guess 10 regular season games max for Julio

Maybe Cal will finally get the message if we have some non-sell outs.

A last place team that is going to start a new QB and new system...."nah, we don't need any extra work...we got this".

Dumb.

Texans are having a hard time selling tickets because most fans think they will roll out a garbage product. None of this will help.

The more I think about this, the more it makes sense. It benefits the Texans because it squashes all the DW4 questions and doesn't give Uncle Dave the opportunity to answer questions on it. It is clear that when he gets talking, he just talks and forgets to tow the company line. Additionally, the less the Texans practice the worse they'll be, which makes their odds at the #1 pick better.

Yes, ticket sales are hurting. But I'd the financial impact for cancelling really material? Either way, team is going to be dog poo this year and I doubt attendance will be good in either case.

From everything I've heard Dave toes the company line like a champ.

After all that's the only reason he got the job.
Texan_Aggie
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
I agree. But the longer he talks, the bigger the risk of him going off script. The Deshaun questions won't go away until he's traded, so I'm assuming they would prefer to squash it rather than let Dave answer questions for 30 minutes.

You are probably correct, but if these are the thoughts that consume a front office no amount of 1st round picks will bring improvement.

Think like a loser, perform like a loser.

No, because he was trying to fleece the Texans for alot of money. He signed a big contract with a huge bonus & guaranteed money because he (and his agent) knew that he would make out huge if/when he forced a trade. He just didnt plan/expect the sexual assault allogations.

Quite the opposite really. He signed the contract and got paid.

Jerome didn't do his homework.

every NFL team is guaranteed to make between $250 MM and $300 MM per year in TV revenue whether they go undefeated or winless.

and the number should be closer to $300 MM with the 17th game added.

the Texans' bottomline will be fine with 10,000 empty seats or 20,000 empty seats

They're still profitable for sure, but right now they're ranked #23 on Forbes list of most valuable sports franchises. It will be interesting to watch that change over the next few years.

I have no doubt Deshaun told Kareem he wanted to be in Denver. Just like I have no doubt he's said something similar to at least 10 other players on other teams. Dumb that this is a story.

Watson was set to show up next week.. So you can squash they cancelled next week as to not fine him.

So, did they quash minicamp so he couldn't show up?

Seems like shooting self in foot, but what else is new from the Texans.

It's not a huge deal but for a team reeling from a litany of bad decisions and an absolutely terrible season likely looming, it looks bad.

New coaches, new schemes, new players, and staring the title of worst team in the league directly in the face, but, sure, they don't need the practice.

I'm guessing the winky face is because you meant this as a joke of some kind, I don't know. Watson was not going to show up and hasn't talked to the Texans front office or coaching staff.
