No good. Shell was my first choice for Kansas City.

"TEXANS KEEP CARR"
So far that makes sense to me. Now if they will realize they need more than a Brian Westbrook type of player and actually surround Carr with a Line they might start to reap some benefits of his ability.

Move free agency to April. No way..free agency sometimes determines drafts and other things. I don't like that.

Draft players that you hope can help your team, then sign FAs that fill needs.

You could. But who would you trust more a FA that has proven himself already or a rookie who has no experience at all? I mean their both coming into brand new systems. Either way I wouldn't really care what comes first. |

I saw this same propensity to hold it too long in the Texans games i've watched over the last 3 years, and debated Carr's talent with Johnson&Johnson. I didn't read those scouting reports until after debating Carr's strengths and weaknesses with J&J. Point being, this isn't the same issue as a Hasselbeck trying to make plays. He holds the ball too long because he doesn't read the defense quickly enough.

Memo to Tags, Upshaw and the rest of the stiffs at the NFL... get off your lazy asses, stop laying around the beach in Hawaii enjoying the Pro Bowl, stop worrying about censoring the Rolling Stones to appeal to religious fanatics in Red States, stop worrying about player's uniforms, socks, shoes, etc... and get a damn CBA worked out already. |

In the end, I think it makes little difference, though one could argue that moving the FA signing period after the draft would give a team more options in the draft, and that drafting the best athlete available would be an easier route to take, because there would be more perceived holes.

It would cost a lot less to sign a draft pick than some big name FA who turns out to be a waste. Either way the rewards of drafting someone who turns out to be a surprise or picking up a FA who turns out to be what a team needed are the same thing. It's just cheaper going the draft way. |
