Default Texans Bringing in Sims-Walker

Former Jaguars WR Mike Sims-Walker is scheduled to work out Wednesday for the receiver-needy Houston Texans. -- Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter)

Kids not look good in the OTA's or just want some additional vets in the mix?

If he's cheap.....why not?

Kubs said a few weeks ago that he still wanted to look at some more vets, so I expected them to bring in some guys. Due Diligence and all.

I also don't think Sims-Walkers has the health to make him worth signing. He has had left knee issues going back to college.

I expect to see a few more vets coming through here.

Sounds like Justin Forsett , RB coming in for tryout tomorrow as well. Could be a few vets signed after June 1 when don't impact compensatory picks.

I am all for bringing in any cheap wr vet. Then I'll hope that our young guys beat the vets out for roster spots.

Jacksonville had one of the worst if not the absolute worst WR corps in the NFL last year and they don't want this guy but we bring him in ? Yea, we may have some issues at WR this year.

We had the worst secondary in the NFL and cut Tramon Williams who then started for the Packers and won the superbowl as part of the best secondary in the NFL. Coaching, franchise stability, and surrounding talent can make or break a guy. Especially when you are a WR trying to catch passes from Blaine Gabbert. Or look at Deon Branch. Great in NE, worthless in Seattle, and then very good in NE again.

I hope we sign this guy cheap, and then I hope he is then beat out by a rookie who is better than we could imagine, or I hope he is a perfect fit in our offense and for our franchise. But either way I won't fault anyone for not succeeding in Jacksonville. They could ruin anyone.
