Recovering from Achilles injury, DeVier Posey could come off PUP list next week

DeVier Posey had 3 receptions for 47 yards and a 25-yard Touchdown catch in that playoff game against the Patriots. He's only 23 years old. It will be nice to have him back in time for the regular season. Now we'll have four young and talented wide receivers in DeAndre Hopkins (21), DeVier Posey (23), Lestar Jean (25) and Keshawn Martin (23).

Hopefully one or two of them can develop into a legitimate go-to guy as Andre Johnson ages. Both DeAndre Hopkins and DeVier Posey have that big playmaking ability to eventually become the best wide receivers on the team. I'm talking about long term when Andre Johnson eventually retires which hopefully isn't for another four or five years. I'm not sure if he wants to have as long a career as his off-season workout partner and mentor Jerry Rice.

I see Keshawn Martin as a good slot guy who can run good routes but never anything more than a number three guy on the depth chart. Lestar Jean is already 25 years old. I still have high hopes for him but at this point guys like Hopkins and Posey have a lot more potential. Jean's ceiling doesn't strike me as being a future number one guy at the top of the WR depth chart like Hopkins and Posey can possibly become.

who did posey play for in college was it ohio or nebraska?

ohio st

Any of you guys attending any games this season?

I gotta see that giant ass screen

Don't know if this is old but DAMN!

We need cushing's attitude in EVERY position

Haha. I've seen this. Cushing is a total meat head.

what you guys think about Watt on Offense... Im guessing he played like TE or h-back. I think he coulud do pretty well as he was a te in college before they converted him to de. he could pull a Warren Sapp lol

Na this is just a no Story... No way Kubiak would put his best defensive player on offense!!!

Sup my buzzin from Idaho.

I would have loved to have seen J.J. Watt at Tight End in goal line packages last season. It couldn't have hurt our porous red-zone offense. But with DeAndre Hopkins' leaping ability and one-handed catches (he can score TDs anywhere on the field), along with sixth-round pick Ryan Griffin -- the big tight end out of UCONN who is 6'6 and 256 -- who had 4 catches for 37 yards in the first pre-season game and is likely going to make the team as the third-string tight end.

I just don't see the need to play Watt on offense at this point in time because our red-zone offense should be improved with our recent draft. With the rookie Ryan Griffin we now have three good tight ends and Watt is unlikely to be on offense unless there is an injury to Owen Daniels or Garrett Graham.

Keep in mind, the entire thought of Watt playing offense actually came about late last season when we were struggling to score points. I don't see that happening this season so long as Matt Schaub plays up to par and doesn't completely suck. He has all the weapons at his disposal along with three pro bowlers on the offensive line.
