Stanford Routt, anyone?

The former Houston Cougar was released by the Raiders and is now a free agent:

Realistically, I don't think we go after anybody until we've settled our issues with Mario and Foster but I'd love to upgrade the secondary some more.

Always interested in an upgrade, but also agree that they need to take care of our FA first then look outside.

But I would find out what his side is thinking in the way of money.

If there is to be a FA in our future, most think it will be a WR. However, Routt would probably help relieve a chronic sore spot in our secondary if he is still healthy.

Texans will be small players in FA this year, IMO. We'll be lucky to see a mid-level FA signed, let alone someone as expensive as this guy will likely be.

So not much chance the Texans make a real good faith effort to sign free agent Jason Allen ?

@JasonLaCanfora: CB Stanford Routt visiting BUF today, KC Tues & HOU, DAL, TEN later in week

From PFT:
Every once in a while, we throw a dart that bounces off the ceiling, ricochets off some dude’s head, and hits the target.

Earlier today, we reported that cornerback Stanford Routt would be picking a new team soon, and I guessed that he’d pick the Chiefs.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, he has. The source says it’s a three-year deal worth just under $20 million.

That’s less than $5 million more than Routt ultimately earned for one year in Oakland.

Routt had visited the Bills, Chiefs, and Bengals since being cut by the Raiders.
