Trouble is of course he's not thought to have any motivation, any desire
to really play football, let alone in the NFL. This guy must really be a long-shot, even for a 5th rounder, and I wonder why the Texans think they can motivate him when nobody else does ? Looks like maybe the guy is just hustling the Texans to pick up some quick cash in the form of a signing bonus ?

I know one of the big knocks on Mack Brown is that he tends to overlook lazyness. People say that he doesn't push weightroom training like other programs do and it tends to hinder development on players. Okam might just need a hard-ass that can push his buttons on the field and in the weightroom. Maybe Franklin is the guy that can do it.
Ultimately, Okam is a low risk, high reward type of investment. Here's to hoping it pays off.
