Houston Texans: Who Should Be Their Top Free Agent or Draft Day Target?

In many ways it can be looked at as a success as the team had many first time accomplishments. This was the first time in franchise history that they made the Playoffs. It was the first time that that they won the AFC South Division, and finally, the 2012 NFL Playoffs marked the first...

This is where teams try to find answers and fix issues from the previous year, and find the magical formula for the 2012 season.

Texans DE J.J. Watt says working at Pizza Hut made him the man he is today
One of the reasons the Texans’ defense transformed from a horrible unit into a formidable one last season was the play of rookie defensive end J.J. Watt. Watt, whose season was capped off by an amazing interception that helped secure a first-round playoff win over the Bengals, finished the year with 5.5 sacks and 56 tackles. His future looks very bright, and according to...

Arian Foster wants to stay in Houston

J.J. Watt Is All Over Miss America, Laura Kaeppeler
Houston Texans defensive lineman J.J. Watt, Miss America Laura Kaeppeler and yours truly all have two things in common.
1. We’re awesome. 2. We’re all from Wisconsin. So suck on that, *******!
Yeah, frankly, we were just as surprised as you when we found out Miss America was a Wisconsin girl, but it’s true and you’ll see why when you take a look at Kaeppeler...

Texans turn page as Kubiak coaches Pro Bowl
Gary Kubiak coached the winning team in the Pro Bowl Sunday evening, which doesnt say a lot about Sunday evening, but says at least a little about Kubiak and the state of professional football in Houston.
It says the Houston Texans coach had the third-most impressive coaching performance in the AFC this season, which means he had the fifth- or sixth-best coaching performance in...

Texans Have a Problem – What to do With Williams and Foster?
The Texans have a big task ahead of them before the start of free agency, and that will be to try and get OLB Mario Williams inked to a long-term deal.
The team will also do what they can to get running back Arian Foster inked, but he will be a restricted free agent, so there’s some time to spare in a deal with him.
The Texans can’t afford to carry Williams at $22.9 million...

LETTING GO
Will Texans let Williams walk?
The Texans' defense didn't miss a step without its star Mario Williams, so much so that the team may let the former number one overall pick hit the market this offseason.

Mario Williams Done in Houston?
Houston Texans outside linebacker Mario Williams is set to hit the free agent market this coming offseason. The question is, will he be back in Houston in 2012?
After Williiams’ season ended prematurely with a torn chest muscle, both Connor Barwin and Brooks Reed did a great job at outside linebacker, which means the Texans may not need him anymore.
Barwin doesn’t believe...
