No worries Texan fans. D-Hops replacement is here!!!!

Texans signed WR Randall Cobb, formerly of the Cowboys, to a three-year, $27 million contract.
Cobb, 30, will get $18.75 million guaranteed. It's been a tough day at the office for Texans coach/GM Bill O'Brien who traded away DeAndre Hopkins for less compensation than what the Vikings received for Stefon Diggs. While unfair to Cobb, the optics of this move look bad just hours after learning that Hopkins was moved because he wanted more money, but it's unquestionably a good fit for the veteran slot receiver. The Texans obviously have targets up for grabs, and Cobb should be a near every-down player with a high-end quarterback. Cobb could be a double-digit round target in summer fantasy drafts depending on how the NFL Draft goes.

O'Brien strikes again.
wtf was he thinking? a stud WR in his prime.

for david "cloud of dust" johnson?

LOL

My first instinct when I saw the terms of this trade was to worry whether Hopkins had lost a limb. My second instinct was to give the Texans side of this deal the same grade safety Tyrann Mathieu awarded his former team. This is a jaw-dropping, mind-bending, inexplicable trade for O'Brien, whose bizarre run as Texans general manager is going to be the subject of a 30 for 30 documentary one day.

He thinks he is the next Bill Belichick is what he thinks. In fact, he is the next Chip Kelly.

I thought the news was from The Onion.

it reminds me of when the cards traded for Chandler Jones.

Fuck the Texans fans though.

They will moan and bitch about O'Buttchin but they sell out NRG every Sunday.

The only way to get O'Brien fired is to have them play in a stadium emptier than a Marlins baseball game.

What I need right now is for @There is A Moose at 3rd to get the hell off the political forum, take a flight to Houston, go to Bill O'Brien's office and explain to him that #RBsDontMatter!
