This isn't at all unusual. That doesn't mean behind closed doors that things aren't going poorly, but the fact the contract negotiations got to this point is no reason to think the Texans are handling things badly.

Dunta's injury kept them from doing anything last year. We knew Daniels was going to be a RFA this year so there was no rush to get anything done before this offseason. I'm sure they both would have liked to have gotten a deal done before now, but it's not unusual by any stretch. There trying to get an extension done with Demeco entering the final year of his contract. I would like to see it all resolved, but there is nothing out of the ordinary about this at all.
