The Houston Texans are just days away from the free agency season opening next week and I get giddy like a kid in the candy store in regard to who this team has on their shopping list. In past seasons, I wouldn’t waste much energy on free agency because Rick Smith was obsessed with developing undrafted free agents.
Some of those guys — like A.J. Bouye — have turned into some nice stars but ultimately, you want to make a splash in free agency to signal to your fan base that you’re seriously committed in bringing the best available talent to win football games.
