The Houston Texans entered free agency with a bunch of money, and offensive line needs. They sat on their dollars and watched as Trent Brown, and Ja’Wuan James were given obscene and exorbitant amounts of dollars to go to Oakland and Denver. This was the right decision. I admired this decision. Overpaying for mediocre players is how teams stifle their performance and obliterate their cap space.
Yet, the Texans still need competition at the tackle position at a minimum. If a plug and play starter couldn’t be found for a contract that made sense, they’d have to search under rocks to find someone, anyone.
