Derrick Ward joins the Texans | ProFootballTalk.com

I think he's a good pick up for them.

man he better not take away carries from arian foster! i need him for fantasy

What the hell! Guys if Shanny and Allen are going to build a long term winner you better get a core group of younger guys in here and keep letting them trickle in as you go. Getting TJ is a tad better than us signing Joey Galloway. We need to quit the older FA signing spree and try and switch gears and start using the draft as the main force in rebuilding a winner. It is funny, we urged Snyder to bring in a GM to take over with a proven new HC and we are pining for the same team buildling philosophy that brought us to the bottom rungs of the NFL ladder. Where's the change?

Is there a draft Sunday? If not, then what the harm in signing a productive player in a position of extreme need? I get the 'draft' but the Saints won last year with 3 of their most productive players coming from someone else's 'draft'. There are multiple ways to build a winning team, one of them is picking up good available players. It's amazing how single minded some fans are.

TJ would be a good pickup, but like I said above, we need to try and secure guys to be herre for the long haul and can develop into the next Clark, Monk, or Saunders. Heck, even a Henry Ellard would be great.

I agree gus, but at the same time we have some youth at WR, but DT does not impress and Banks cannot hold onto the damn ball.

So:

Moss, TJ, Armstrong, Austin, Galloway, and DT if we keep 6.

Not so bad... youth and experience. No picks given up everyone is happy

GusFrerotte · 09-03-2010, 07:53 PM

My point is that why do we keep signing old guys if we are trying to get a decent WR corp built around an aging Moss? This year we aren't going anywhere Pain. We might make the Wildcard, but realistically we have zero shot at the title. Do we sign TJ for a one year deal? If so then that is cool, but we don't need another aging WR for a multi year contract. Bring in young studs, play them and in a few years most of them should shine. We will not be SB bound til 2012 at the earliest, so why bring in an older guy that won't be around then, when you can groom a young WR that will peak at the right time?

Oh, bring in young studs, why didn't I think of that? Of course there's a hope that works out (ex. Kelly, Thomas) but when it doesn't then you need to supplement to help you win games. Bringing in Housh on a 2 year deal wouldn't have any negative impact on the teams fortunes.

SFREDSKIN · 09-03-2010, 08:31 PM

49ers just cut 22 players, among them is Jason Hill WR who I think could be a nice pickup.
