Houston Notes
(5/23) New DC Armstrong downgrade from Shiel Wood
(5/15) DE/Pass Rush looks like a big ? Walls (FIU) key
(5/15) OL awful LY. 5 portals, could improve to decent
(5/13) TE Koziol (Ball St) huge add, @ Wisc in spring
(5/13) RB Connors (Rice) also a big receiving threat
(4/4) CB Jeremiah Wilson a top 10 CB via PFF
(3/21) QB Weigman is talented. Could be great fit
(3/21) RB bad LY. Connors (Rice) good add. Some depth
(3/21) WR bad LY. Broussard/Thomas portals help
(3/21) Def good LY, a lot back. 9 portal adds, 5 DBs
