But don't let Romo stop you from drafting a QB on the first 2 days.
Assuming he's willing to come to Houston and play ball what's the price tag on Romo gonna be ? 2-year deal at 15M a year front-end loaded where all of the guaranteed money hits the cap in 2017 ? That may all be moot as Romo might just up and retire now.
Even if we sign him I expect them to draft a QB this year and in the first round it they like their Board. In other words no more procrastination on drafting a young QB.
I'm starting to really like this MaHomes kid out of Texas Tech but he may be too wild and wooly for O'Brien but he's got a tremendous arm.

Texans re-signed TE Ryan Griffin to a 3-year deal. So that solves the problem there.

My Marty B lust is more about my personal cry for help to upgrade the talent at the position more than anything. The point about his relationship with Romo is a good one. I probably could have just said any capable TE's name to make my point.

I love him. I coached against him his senior year in HS. I was a low level defensive assistant and we were sure we had a great game plan for how to handle him down near the goal line.

We lost in OT when he caught a goal line TD. So much for that. The TD was more like a rebound than a fade route.

I think he was fantastic for the Patriots last year and he is the rare receiving threat at TE who still blocks. I would have loved him on the Texans in the Kubiak years when we used the TE.

Don't know how long it's been since Romo played a full season.

I totally agree with you on the Mahomes kid, I really like him.
