And now Sweringer and Williams deals agreed so all 9 draft picks signed before traing camp starts. Good deal.

What do ya'll think? I think all three of these guys may be starting for season opener.

I'd say the top 2 picks better see a lot of action... Would be kind of a waste if they don't...

Maybe 2 out of 3, but isn't Brennan Williams still trying to recover from surgery he had for an injury suffered at the beginning of OTAs ? If he doesn't get into
a regular practice routine and see substantial action in preseason games during TC, he might face a real challenge to see any significant playing time
in the 2013 season ?

The Texans added another player to the physically unable to perform list today: rookie offensive tackle Brennan Williams.

Williams was a third-round pick for the Texans. He suffered a knee injury during the Texans’ rookie minicamp and, according to coach Gary Kubiak, had the knee cleaned out afterward. The Texans drafted Williams out of North Carolina with their third selection in April’s draft. He was the 89th overall selection.

Today’s move follows yesterday’s, in which the Texans placed rookie defensive end Earl Okine on PUP and placed outside linebacker Sam Montgomery and safety Orhian Johnson on the non-football injury list. Both Montgomery and Johnson count against the Texans’ active roster, but designating their injuries as non-football injuries ensures the Texans aren’t responsible for those injuries.

Players must be placed on PUP before the first practice. The Texans begin training camp on Friday. Rookies reported Monday while veterans are to report Thursday.

Some news today. First, Brennan Williams and Sam Montgomery were moved to active list today. That is encouraging news.

Then Ed Reed and Adrian Foster were both put on PUP today. This doesn't mean too much unless still on Pup list day after second cuts . If so can't play till 7th game of season.

Last, team cut Supernaw and Sonny Harris a few days ago. Today added two guys with 5 or so yrs experience each. Muir , a nose tackle and Mack a CB.

And no pads practice starts tomorrow.
