You know what, maybe Rick Smith is onto something here. Sure the Texans haven’t signed a single free agent this year, or even had one visit yet, or even picked up the phone to order a lovely fruit basket to lure a free agent to visit Houston. But maybe that’s part of the plan.
Sure the Texans have no free agent signings, but you know what they do have? Compensatory picks. They have so many compensatory picks for all the free agents that have left Houston this offseason. In fact, according to an article in America’s favorite newspaper/fishwrap/foot ointment, the Comicle, the Houston Texans are expected to have up to four compensatory picks.
