Faneca has agreed to terms with the Cardinals -- one year, $2.5 million gauranteed base with a $300k signing bonus and a $100k workout bonus. He'll be reunited with Ken Whisenhunt and Russ Grimm, who also coached him in Pittsburgh.

Interesting thought. There is no question that he made an enormous impact on the Saints last year and I'm not sure they win the Super Bowl without him. Savvy veteran leadership for a relatively young secondary. Having said that, I think it's fairly clear the Texans aren't in the market for guys like this. While I understand you can go overboard compiling big name players on the decline, a la the Redskins, I do think there is something to be said for taking a guy or two like that as stop-gap measures at positions of need, particularly when you think you are positioned to challenge for the playoffs. I think it is pretty clear the Texans don't feel this way though so all this talk is probably just that--talk.

Definitely agree. I would also add that I don't think the Texans feel there is anything wrong with the safeties. I've heard them say good things about Pollard, Wilson, and Barber. My guess is that Wilson is their saavy veteran.

What they say in public at a press conference and what they really think are two different things in many cases.
