Nick Caserio tries to calm the excitement about the new players the Texans have acquired.
This looks about right. Stingley is the headliner of the Texans' rookie class, and thus has the shortest odds to win his respective Rookie of the Year Award at 12/1. I do think if Stingley is fully healthy, which Caserio and Lovie Smith both indicated Monday they have no concerns about, he is a sneaky good play at those odds. Of the other two Texans defensive rookies, I think Christian Harris is a fun play at 50/1.
Offensively, the Texans' two rookie skill guys are understandably deep on the odds board, but I am confident that both Dameon Pierce and John Metchie III can be viable contributors to an improved Texans offense. If I had to pick one of the two, I would go with Pierce, because he has the better chance of garnering a bigger role in the offense, and he unlike Metchie, Pierce is not coming off an ACL injury.
Either way, I plan on remaining excited about these rookies, and excited to find out where and when they play their games this year. Sue me, Nick! Listen to Sean Pendergast on SportsRadio 610 from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. weekdays. Also, follow him on Twitter at
