Life comes at you fast. They were 11-0 and now headed toward major uncertainty ... need to deal with Villanueva, juju, Dupree as FAs... Ben’s contract is an albatross ... I could see JJ watt and cam on the inside and TJ watt and dupree on the outside but Ben’s arm is falling apart and that overshadows everything 

 

And the Pouncey brothers just announced their retirements so that is another hole on the o-line for Pittsburgh to fill.

I’m sure Beane will check in on his interest and price. 
It makes sense to add him for any of the contending teams. 
He has to want to come here though and he has to accept a mid level short contract. Our gm’s on here seem to think you make all these cuts and just sign whoever you want. Houston released him because I’m sure he knows the top 3 where he wants to go and odds are high those top 3 would all offer contracts.

Can he sign with another team right away? Or does he have to wait for the new NFL fiscal year in March?

[The Firebaugh Kid]

Sign him. Immediately.

I believe he can sign anytime now that he’s released

Been saying it forever. Gimme Watt and Boogie Basham.

Astros really brought a ton of bad sports karma to Houston.

 

Texans fall apart. Rockets in shambles.

[Nester]

A Watt Jersey would be an instant add to my collection.

Love JJ Watt but at this stage I think he is a 3-4 end only. He could play some 3 tech in a 4 man front in Buffalo but I am not sure that is where our need really is. I don't think at this stage in his career he is a 4-3 Edge guy.

Way to kill some posters buzz Gunner.

 

LOL...I actually agree with this.  We need youth and quick twitch.  

 

I wouldn't be against signing him but I won't be upset if we don't.

Please pass on JJ watt.  someone will pay him way too much for not alot of production.

 

sack totals last 3 years: 5,5,4.

Sure we can. We have a lot of guys to cut, including the three busts on the DL we signed last year.

Agree, plus he's not getting the 17m he was due in Houston.  Maybe 10-12ish I would guess.  Thats a Jefferson and a half of Butler

[US Egg]

The pout your way off a team isn't anything new. It's definitely becoming more in vogue in the NFL.

 

With that and tight salary caps, players will be flip flopping team to team NBA style real soon.

I see him as a Quinton Jefferson type on this DL- thoughts?

Ouch. Not even trading him then. Seems like they could have gotten something for him.

He was due 17million, dont think anyone would take in that salary with his age
