I left the 2013 season feeling like he was overrated. That is a lot of money to pay for a special teams player that neither kicks nor punts (or even long snaps).

I am disappointed because I liked him. I wouldn't pay him that money and I think he was limited on defense. But he was fun.

When you know his life story, you have to be happy he got a nice payday. But iirc he is a four year vet, or is going to be, and don't they get close to $1M a year anyway?

Ben Tate sined 2 yrs for 7 mil with cleveland.

We have lost a lot of our good draft picks during last four yars of FA. Lotta guys making pretty good paydays.

Good for the players getting FA deals, just not good for Texans.

Bryan Braman. OLB. Eagles. 2 years, $3.15M

Well, the team should recoup a decent haul of some middling 2015 compensatory picks.

Who still believes that we are not rebuilding?
