We don't really have one of these yet, so figured we could use this as a place to discuss potential free agent acquisitions and what we would like to look for them to bring in.
If any of you guys are interested, heres a good place to do some research.

Mosley is gonna be expensive... moreso than Hitchens. [Reply]
Put him inside then on passing downs stand his ass up. Could’ve tried it with Ragland who did that at Alabama. At the least as a different look that was one of the things I wanted to see Sutton try but that shit is in the past. [Reply]

A selfish deep threat diva WR who seems to be losing his bearings coupled with the Check Down King QB who cries when he's sacked, and an overly hard-ass moronic coach?
You think that's a good recipe? And paying ANY RB as well as Bell will get paid is always a stupid move. [Reply]
Yeah I'm still a little stunned that Veach couldn't generate a market to at least control where he lands.
FFS, take a 6th and include our 7th. Take ANYTHING just to be able to control where he ends up.
It isn't that he's necessarily gonna make a ton more than the $14 that's so bizarre here - he may well not. It's that 5 teams are gonna chase him, only 1 is gonna get him and the other 4 are going to throw big money at worse players anyway.
How the !@#$ do you not convince some team "hey, tell ya what, let's just take the risk out of this and make the deal so you KNOW you have him and aren't out there chasing scraps...."
I just don't see how Veach couldn't get a market of any sort for him when Olivier Vernon coming off a LESS healthy, LESS productive season than Houston and who carries a higher cap hit that Houston would've for the next two seasons returned a damn good guard in Zeitler. There should've been a market here. [Reply]

@AaronWilson_NFL: Texans' negotiating priority remains Tyrann Mathieu, whom they've offered a multi-year contract extension. RIch safety market, so plenty of fallback options if he signs elsewhere. Hearing Ravens aren't involved on him. Lions have interest and Chiefs, among others. [Reply]
