I'd rather pay Kareem, give Mallett a decent bump, extend some of the other young guys while they might be cheap(er) and maybe take a shot at a good FA or two.

pretty much agree with this.

according to this article , Texans have $146,025,746 in adjusted salary cap space. http://hou.scout.com/story/1522829-c...lead-way?s=116

If I read overthecap correctly if we cut Andre the dead money and cap savings will be dead money $7,319,583 and cap savings $8,825,000. Cut Meyers save 6,000,000 on cap, cut Graham and save 2.4 mil on cap, cut fitzpatrick and save 3.5 mil on cap.

I'm not sure but might be good to keep Fitz as that veteran backup at a reasonable rate.

Hopefully a bunch of last year draft picks will show up more this year and even better next year, they are all young guys.
