QB Brink, LB Coley, OT Dedrick Released
The Texans released QB Alex Brink, LB Kevis Coley and T Doug Dedrick today. I suppose they might be doing this to make room for draft pick signings.
So I guess Brink really didn't look much better from last season after all. Makes me wonder if a fourth QB will be added to roster before camp. btw, the Aggie punter Justin Brantly was released last Thursday. |

What is the number, 80 on the roster when training camp starts? And only 80 more days to the first game with NYJ on Sept. 13, and Texans best year yet.
I was a little surprized they released Brantley, maybe giving him a chance to tryout elsewhere. |
We have 5 unsigned draft picks and Dunta is unsigned. So that is 6 roster spots that will have to be cleared when these guys sign.
If my count is correct we currently have 83 guys on the official sites roster. So 3 more guys to cut precamp. |

[personal note to dunta]Face it, dude. If the team doesn't want to pay you, they don't have to. We luvs ya, but you gotta complain to your union about it and then get ready for camp.[/personal note to dunta] |
I didn't think that they would dump Coley, I really liked him last year.

Kubiak asked Smith to find him a QB in the seventh, and I think Brink's release shows how hard it is to get anything in the seventh round when you are not going BPA.

slightly surprised, but only slightly, at that one too. I think he was on of those guys who you want to root for. Undrafted, but looks like he has a chance to stick in the league guys always make for a good story. Our LB situation is pretty crowded though. Cushing, Ryans, Adibi, Diles, Bentley, June, Shaun Thompson, Buster Davis. I thought they might at least bring him into camp in case someone went down...they have probably seen enough of him to know what they got though and will likely check out some other young LB in camp. |
I swore I was not going to rant about the wasted pick Brink was. They could of had the local hero. (Anthony Alridge )
But they have now passed on him twice, to my surprise. What the heck do I know. :( Heck Peyton Hillis FB/RB, Paul Smith (Tulsa)QB, Wesley Woodyard (Kentucky)LB would all have been better pick ups. |
Here we are complaining about a wasted 7th rnd. pick when a few years ago Cassery was saying 3rd, rnd. picks were basically throwaways. My how far we have come..

I have not seen them bring many of those guys back after the fact, but I am hoping they do on a few guys. |
