CB Leigh Bodden Visiting Texans

[Keith]

Yeah, about right.

Alan Burge was on this topic earlier:

Mike Reiss of ESPNBoston.com suggested that Bodden would command a deal in the $5 million per season range (potential contract value, i.e., 4 years, 20 million). ...

Another bit Alan picked up while tuned in to NFLN:

Jason LaCanfora repeated what others have been saying - that the Patriots are still trying to keep Bodden - but he added "it's down to the Texans and Patriots." Lindsay Soto asked LaCanfora whether the Seahawks or Steelers were in the running, to which LaCanfora responded "I'd be surprised if it's not the Patriots or Texans."

While I don't always buy what LaCanfora sells, he repeated several times yesterday that the Texans were "very interested," so on this one I'll listen to him a while longer.

LaCanfora went on to say that Bodden is "going to stay (in Houston) through the night and meet with coaches and management tomorrow." He added, "if the money wasn't already in the ball park he would have never gotten on that plane."

Michael Lombardi said that Bodden "had a better season than Dunta Robinson" last year. Lombardi called Bodden a "solid starting corner, but not a Pro Bowler."
