UDFA's
SO nice to be back in the business of football.
Saw a couple of LZ tweets on UDFA's. Actual signings to come @ 9AM, but I'm sure these would stick. From: @LanceZierlein Lance Zierlein Florida Atlanta WR Lester Jean headed to the Texans. Jean is a big target with better timed speed than game speed but good signing. Texans sign Colorado State FB Zac Pauga. I'll be very surprised if Leach is re-signed by the Texans. They have to free up money somewhere Oregon WR Jeff Maehl is signed by the Houston Texans. Productive college WR, but lacks speed and seems smaller than his 190 from combine

Add Adrian Taylor (DL, Oklahoma) 6-3.5 310
He is described to be an immovable object. Not much of a penetrator. Could be just a body. Remember they will need to have 10 extra bodies, so IMO they are no where near done with UDFA. Sadly my #1 choice of punter signed with the Eagles. Henry from Florida. My #2 choice is still not listed. Looks like we sign someone on Friday.

Add Jason Teague CB 6-2 190 TCU doesn't have long speed, or recovery speed.

His college LB coach has ties to Wade and that seems to be how he ended up here. Do you think Bob knows about this kid? As for the mostly offense comment, they need bodies in order to practice, they are short handed at WR and FB when it comes time to practice. Also last year they sign two UDFA FB for camp, so don't read to much into that, doubtful any of the FB signed make the 53 man roster. As for the lack of defenders, I am guessing right now that they sign a lot of vets to fill out the roster, we are going to need ILBs to practice. I doubt Ryans will get a full schedule of reps.

I heard Rick Smith told Lance Z, that they had agreed to terms with 18 guys last night. So they should have around that number sign today.

Likely this will go up to 15 our so by end of today.
Looks like some reasonable WR to look at and a couple FB now up to eight Texans Bubba Bartlett (TE/FB, Carroll College) Height: 6'1 Weight: 246 1st Team AFCA All-American. He led the nation for TE’s with 85 receptions for 951 yards and 7 touchdowns. Academic All-Conference. Jeff Maehl (WR, Oregon)Height:6'1" Weight:190 lbs. Maehl's time in the 3-cone drill (6.42) is the fastest recorded since the combine became keeping records in 2000. Zac Pauga (FB, Colorado State) The 6-1, 246-pounder is considered a strong receiver out of the backfield. played 49 consecutive games. Pete Hendrickson (OT, Tulane)Height / Weight:6-8 / 310 He’s a big guy that’s athletic. Lestar Jean (WR, Florida Atlantic)Height:6'3" Weight:215 lbs. Jean is a very raw receiver, but he has great size and speed to develop Terrance Tolliver (WR, LSU) ??? Height:6'4" Weight:212 lbs. Toliver's frame and speed are coveted but needs to develop skills Bryan Braman (LB, West Texas A&M) 6'5" Height, 240 lbs Weight "I really want to make something happen, work hard and take advantage of this opportunity." Adrian Taylor (DL, Oklahoma) Height / Weight:6-4 / 302 Solid run defender, plays assignment-sure and eats up blockers while maintaining his gap discipline. quite a few injuries in college. Jason Teague(CB, TCU) Height: 6-2 Weight: 197 finishing first on the team and tied for seventh in the Mountain West Conference with nine passes defended, 2 INT, i1 ret for TD

“It’s pretty exciting,” Bartlett told the Independent Record. “I can’t even tell you how excited I am.” ** Bartlett said he will fly to Houston at 6:20 a.m. on Tuesday to prepare for the Texans’ training camp, which begins Saturday. Read more: http://helenair.com/sports/football/...#ixzz1TIz5oV4u &&&&&& These small college guys that come out of the middle of nowhere to take their shot at an NFL career are the ones who intrigue me the most. Carrol College is a private, Catholic school in Helena, Montana and this Barlett kid is a native of Spokane Wa. It was 100 degrees in Houston yesterday with a heat-index of 'bout 110 degress, while I'm guessing it was 75 or 80 in western Montana yesterday with dry, cool air. Good luck Bubba !
