What does the small salary cap increase mean for the Texans

[PREPBALLFAN]

The salary cap will rise about 400,000 up to 121,000,000 for next season how does that help or hur the Texans who still have a huge decision to make on Barwin.

It's not that big of a deal. Sign him cheap or let him walk.

mercilus >>> barwin

if he wants to stick around for a mid level type deal then cool, otherwise see ya!

im just worried that rick smith will panic and then trade or cut chris myers or owen daniels you know another brain fart like last year when he was feeling the heat from the cap.

Not a chance. Cutting Walter is almost a given; Antonio Smith is one more possibility. I think we let Barwin walk, sign GQ, let a bunch of expirings walk, draft ILB, OLB, and NT. Go to FA for some depth at OL and LB, maybe DL and DB.
