I mean the eagles traded their starting S, CJGJ, to us for Kenyon and then cut Kenyon.

Harrison Bryant released

So was this the Texans "taking care" of Metchi? Sent him to a contender instead of cutting him and taking the chance he ends up in Cleveland?

Seems weird to cut Bryant after just trading for him. Metchie has value.


I don't agree at all. Metchie had/has absolutely zero value.

Of course he does, that is why he is still employed. I think you are confusing value with need. We did not need him. And yes, he fell well short of expectations coming out of the draft.

My point is more a question, perhaps. Why trade for Bryant then cut him? We are not exactly deep at TE. Do we get compensatory picks, did Nick save some money by doing it this way vs just cutting Metchie etc. Just seems like there may be more to it.

Or, was Bryant just not what we had hoped so they cut bait. It does feel like Nick may have just tried to do Metchie a solid.

There was a trade. Not sure what else you need.

So I dug in a bit further than I had. We sent a 6th rd and received a 5th round in the Metchie deal. So, we moved up a round and basically swapped back the 5th and 6th round included in the CJGJ trade. While not a sizzler, looks like Nick came out ahead on this one too.

Ok, practice squad is filling out

  • offensive tackle Trent Brown
  • fullback Jakob Johnson
  • running back Jawhar Jordan
  • wide receiver Jared Wayne
  • linebacker Jackson Woodard
  • Center Eli Cox
  • linebacker K.C. Ossai
  • defensive tackle Haggai Ndubuisi
  • OL Jaylon Thomas
  • DE Solomon Byrd
  • CB Damon Arnette
  • tight end Luke Lachey
  • DB Myles Bryant
  • DT Junior Tafuna
  • tight end Harrison Bryant (this one was confusing, apparently he's on the PS but will probably be elevated to the active roster before week 1)

Also not to happy about this coming out of the press conference

Quote:

Caserio said they'll evaluate Mixon at the end of that four-game window without offering any assurance that Mixon is expected to play at all this season.

"We'll see, we'll take it one day at a time," Caserio said, via Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle.

Caserio and Demeco were both pr*ckly when it came to discussing Mixon's status. Weird deal.

Reports seem to be that he's been TOTALLY MIA.
