Which Rookie will have the biggest impact? 

Post#1 » by Mr. E » Sun Jun 28, 2009 3:30 am

Lots of new faces on the roster this season. Some drafted, some signed later.

Who do you think will have the greatest impact as a rookie on this Texans squad?

Brian Cushing
Connor Barwin
Antoine Caldwell
Glover Quin
Anthony Hill
James Casey
Brice McCain
Troy Nolan
Arian Foster
Jeremiah Johnson


I know that Cush is the obvious choice here, but to be honest I think that his overall impact will be overshadowed by our third round pick, Antoine Caldwell.

Very solid rookie class.

Glover Quin. Mark my words, he'll be our best rookie this season.

I still don't know much about him, but keep hearing that he'll be considered a steal for where we got him in the draft.

He's been tearing it up in offseason training camps. Reporters say he gets a lot of interceptions, and I've never heard that said about any Texans DB before.

That's a welcome comment to hear about our DBs! We'll see how he looks with the pads on pretty soon. I'd love it if we found ourselves a steal at that position.

The thought of an improved Texans secondary...just seems unreal!

Cush signed a deal today. Don't know the details yet, but I'm glad that it won't be a distraction.

Barwin signed a 4-year deal yesterday, and I think all the others are signed as well now.

Scouting reports out of camp say Quin is very impressive and Bruce McCain is the only guy that can cover AJ.

With our secondary getting hurt and holding out we really need those guys to have good rookie seasons
