    cal and the texans have never known to be cheap, quite the opposite. cal has always spent when it made sense. And its not like Cal is out here like jerry jones making the deals himself. he stays out the way, let people do their jobs and writes the checks. The type of owner you want

    Noah Brown is only good as a fourth option. If he moves up to a third option, expect little to no production again.

    Well if nothing else the Townsend signing saved me from doing a deep dive into the punters available in this years draft! lol
    Looking at some of his film and I like that he has a quick two step delivery on his punts.
    Plus it seems like he gets good hang time as well.
    Don't know how he is at putting it out inside the 10 yard kine but I'm satisfied with the signing.

    Care to point me when they spent in FA?

    The McNair's have always been hands on owners.

    Now that they've signed the ST's guys they wanted on day one of FA (lmao)

    Maybe they will go about signing some guys like Diggs/Henry/Hunter/Samuel etc...

    Let's just go big and get Calvin Ridley at WR.

    No. We got brown back. Roll with collins, dell, brown, metchie, hutch, 2nd or 3rd round draft pick.

    Spend on RB and Defense

    That ain't gonna get it done. Unless you hit on that pick. If tank or Nico goes down, we're back to not being able to move the ball. Especially with our RN situation.

    Those 3 aren't even in the same ballpark as Ridley. If we don't sign a FA WR I sure hope we get a good one in the draft, but we need a top CB too. I'm fine with RB and defense though, if we get someone way better than Singletary, who signed real cheap for a RB. But, we do need another top WR.

    Draft? Risky... but could be the plan

    I like Nelson... but I think he is looking to get PAID
