Player Notes
May 31, 2008
Ahman Green has returned to practice Friday after missing the previous two days due to a case of food poisoning, according to the Houston Chronicle.

Our View:Other than the food poisoning, Green has been healthy so far during off-season practice sessions. He has a history of nagging knee problems, but is expected to be 100% at the start of training camp. If he remains healthy, he would likely serve as the Texans' starting running back, but a committee approach is expected, with former member of the Titans Chris Brown a potential candidate for the top backup role.

Ahman Green missed the Houston Texans workout Wednesday with a possible case of food poisoning, according to the Houston Chronicle. "He's sick," coach Gary Kubiak said. "He was really sick this morning, and he came in and we took him to the doctor. We think he may have food poisoning. But he's fine."

Our View:Green has been healthy thus far during offseason workouts, but has a well-documented history of injury issues, mostly with his problematic knees. He cuurently sits on top of the Houston running back depth chart, but the Texans are expected to employ a RBBC scenario with Chris Brown and rookie Steve Slaton figuring prominently in the mix.
May 10, 2008
Ahman Green is fully healthy for minicamp, according to the Houston Chronicle. He suffered a knee injury in Week 1 last season, and was limited to only six games. The Texans now have a logjam at the position as Domanick Williams is also healthy, and the team added Chris Brown, formerly of the Titans. Darius Walker looked good as a rookie, namely at banging out tough yards and as a receiver out of the backfield, and he will be in the mix for playing time as well. On top of that, the team drafted West Virginia rusher Steve Slaton in the third round.

Our View:Green racked up 260 rushing yards over his six injury plagued games in 2007, with 14 receptions for another 123 yards. He is the acting starter and will get his chance to stay on top of the depth chart, but going by his poor track record with durability, another back will emerge in Houston in 2008. Who that may be remains to be seen. Chris Brown ran their zone scheme (compliments of new assistant head coach Alex Gibbs) while at Colorado and that would give him a leg up on the other backs for the number two spot, but the race is still going to be wide open.
April 13, 2008
The Houston Chronicle confirms the Texans are looking for a left tackle, cornerback, pass-rushing end, and running back in the upcoming draft.

Our View:It's no secret that the Texans need a long-term solution, unless Darius Walker or Chris Taylor turns into a surprise contributor. Ahman Green remains the starter, but Gary Kubiak will add some young legs behind him, possibly as soon as the first round.
March 26, 2008
The Houston Texans are likely to draft a running back on the second day of the 2008 NFL draft, according to the Houston Chronicle. The organization currently lists its running back depth chart like this: Ahman Green, Chris Brown, Darius Walker and Chris Taylor. The Texans are looking to draft a later round back that fits the one-cut-and-go zone-blocking scheme that Gary Kubiak and Alex Gibbs prefer to utilize. It sounds like the powers that be in Houston are putting a lot of faith in the health of Green and Brown, two players who haven proven to be injury prone the past few seasons.
