Derrick Mason - The Newest Texan WR
Per Jabba - Traded for a conditional pick.
@McClain_on_NFL: Texans trade a condt'l draft pick to NYJ for WR Derrick Mason Can't see him as a field stretcher anymore, but definitely a chain mover that runs decent routes.

I saw the other day he was complaining about the offense and they thought Rex might cut him to make an example. With our wr situation I immediately thought we may sign him if it happened. As long as it is a 6th/7th type of pick I am for it. We can't afford to hold back with how open things are this year.

Seeing reports of a Conditional 7th round pick for Mason, per source. #Jets
IMHO - This certainly can't hurt us, provided he knows his role, and keeps his mouth shut. This is a very un-Texan like move.... I kinda like that.

This is interesting on several levels.
- Roster-wise: Probably a bad sign for what the team thinks of Jacoby Jones, David Anderson, and/or Bryant Johnson. - Health-wsie: Hopefully this says nothing about the injury status of Andre Johnson. - Upcoming Opponent-wise: Mason, while most recently of the Jets, was a long-time Raven, and Baltimore is next on the schedule. - Oiler-wise: Unless I am mistaken, Mason is the last current player who wore an Oiler uniform (not as a throwback), albeit as a Tennessee Oiler.

I'm almost afraid to say I like this trade, but boy do we need some help there.
I really want to see what he can do on this team, esp. against his old team, as long as Matt doesn't turn into a turtle after the first time he's hit. Otherwise, I'd probably have more fun poking a dead squirrel than watching another Texans debacle.

Bryant's probably the odd man out, but I think this trade is more about JJ and his lack of basic WR skills than it is about finding a temporary fill-in for AJ. I honestly think they did it with the mindset of having a year-long upgrade to JJ once AJ comes back. Mason's obviously not what he used to be, but at least he can catch the damn ball, run precise routes and stretch the field a bit more than Walter/Daniels/Dressen/Casey.
There's a rumor on twitter that they're about to sign Juaquin Iglesias pending a physical.

Hmmmm, maybe AJ is not too far off.
Trade ended up not costing us a dime. http://profootball.scout.com/a.z?s=1...=5895645&fhn=1 Source: Texans cut Derrick Mason by Aaron Wilson of Scout.com, December 12, 2011 at 3:24 pm ET Derrick Mason Profile The Houston Texans have cut veteran wide receiver Derrick Mason today, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation. Mason is a two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver. He was cut by the Baltimore Ravens and the New York Jets previously this year. The Texans need the roster spot to bolster their special teams.

From the Chronic: http://blog.chron.com/ultimatetexans...eceiver-mason/ The Texans placed wide receiver Derrick Mason on waivers today. Mason, 37, was signed during the season. There’s a good chance the team will replace him on the roster with wide receiver Jeff Maehl, a rookie out of Oregon who is on the practice squad. Mason appeared in seven games for the Texans, catching six passes for 55 yards.
