Just how comfortable is the team going into the season with Ahman, Brown, Walker, and Taylor?

I'll pull a muscle giving myself a pat on the back for nailing this story line. I was pretty doubtful that both Stewart and Mendenhall would be gone by #18.

While I think it is inevitable that the Texans take a corner sooner than later, how early they select a running back will again be interesting to me as we start Day Two.
