    He's not. Joel Heath has shown more in camp and in the games.

    Still is a good story but he hasn't shown anything. I haven't included him on my 53 projections.

    Should I start Brock or Eli in fantasy week 1 LOL.

    And should I start Will Fuller.

    This sounds like an automatic TD.

    Jayson Braddock doesn't think Still has shown anything worthy of making the team either.

    Cliett is not always injured. He tore an ACL.....and started camp on PUP list. He is healthy now. He was a rookie last season.

    I don't think he should be safe, he still has to prove himself, I'd hope he was playing tonight.

    Shorts has the advantage of actually having produced in the NFL.

    Yeah but he has the disadvantage of turning 29 this year and missing time due to injury in literally every NFL season he's played. Also, he has a very low catch rate, when the rookie was only one of 2 WR's with a lower catch rate despite it being Shorts' career high, you have to think that the younger guy could win out a battle if he shows improvement.

    Have 1 open spot between 5 guys Weeden, Shorts, Ballentine, Cliett & Nelson. Who should get it?

    Possibly Ballentine starts on P.U.P.

    Watt and D Brown have some concern too starting Week 1 on the P.U.P

    Thinking Texans carry 5 HB's. Too much versatility

    Ballentine was put on the PUP; he doesn't factor in to the first 53.
