Of that foursome you listed I'd think the most difficult player for the Texans to leave on the Board would be Raji, pot-head allegations and all.

IMO the way to improve the pass rush is to improve the run defense. If you are a top 10 defense against the run, then usually you have more 3rd and longs, that helps the rush. So Smith should help the run and he has a little more ability to rush then Weaver.
Greenwood's has been a bigger problem than most realize, we have had a sub-pare LB group since before the last year of Capers. And when you have weak LB play the offense can act on will.
Also IMO to much emphasis is placed on sacks, when you analyse the data, stop the run, win.
