Texans, Black agree to deal
March 08, 2007

It took little time for Jordan Black to decide that the Texans were the right fit for him.

The offensive tackle from the Kansas City Chiefs toured Reliant Stadium and met with coaches and other front office personnel Thursday morning. By the afternoon, he had agreed to a contract.

Black will compete immediately for a starting tackle position, either on the left or right side, depending on the health of left tackle Charles Spencer, whose season-ending leg injury continues to heal.

With experience at both guard positions, and both tackle positions, Black is a versatile addition to the Texans’ offensive line. His size (6-5, 310) and speed are his biggest assets. He also has played in every game the past three seasons, which is a welcome sign for the Texans, who had an injury-depleted line in 2006.

But this guy can't be that good, or we couldn't afford him because so many other teams have far more cap space than we do and this is a young, but experienced OT. Teams pay huge contracts/premiums for players like that. Look at the deal the Cowboys gave to Leonard Davis, who might even play guard but no more than RT, definitely not LT from reports.
Lets hope this isn't the second coming of Todd Wade and we sign him, again.

nope OL comment coupled with the WPI link, post #55 takes the gold.

desperation will cause some to celebrate even the biggest disaster

03-08-2007, 07:55 PM

I wonder how many draft picks we had to give the Texans to take him....

The jig is up.....

I don't know anything about this guy, but I got this off a Chiefs message board. It isn't pretty.

Chiefs Planet

I will say, its a good thing we didn't pay much for him

Basileus777 · 03-08-2007, 08:03 PM

At least they didn't pay much for him. It isn't a bad pickup for them if he is just going to serve as depth, but if he is going to start at tackle....well..Freeney won't have to worry about breaking double-digits sacks this year.

FringeNC · 03-08-2007, 08:06 PM

Wow. That's nothing for a tackle. We should have paid him more than that to stay here as a guard.

dtebbe · 03-08-2007, 08:17 PM

For all you visiting Texans fans, I'll give you the "411":

Left Tackle:

Right Tackle:

And to help with the I-65 monkier... he wore #65 here in KC.

You figure out the rest.

Our best move of the offseason so far!!!!!

Halfcan · 03-08-2007, 08:27 PM

Goodbye loser.

Direckshun · 03-08-2007, 08:33 PM

Oh MAN.

David Carr, the best quarterback you'll never see actually get a chance.

They have a special alarm at the Houston Hospital when Carr gets pummeled, if you didn't know. They have sirens and an express routine practiced, just like the President.

**the Talking Can** · 03-08-2007, 08:34 PM

this is our best FA move in a long time.....holy lord he was terrible
