So, not to interrupt the draft but I wanted to post for a moment on my general absence in the thread lately. To be quick about it - there's some life things happening that are keeping my attention away from here and other places.

More specifically, my wife received a really rather amazing job opportunity last month. Something that would provide for us a better lifestyle and the possibility of travel. The rub? The job opportunity is in Canada. So with her final acceptance of said job offer - we are looking to move forward with emigrating to the great north! There's a metric ton of paperwork involved, lots of lawyers and meetings, etc. So to say that its been busy is an understatement.

I've also been working with my company to secure a position with our local office right outside of Ottawa (which is our likely destination) and it appears likely that will happen.

My wife's job will not actually go live until mid-2018 so we're not in any major hurry. We're waiting for our passports so that we can take a trip up to Ottawa and see if its really what we want to do before putting too much money and effort into this but thus far we're feeling good. Excited, scared, worried...every emotion you can imagine. I've been an American for the close to 40 years of my life so its going to be a pretty amazing experience to NOT be one if all of this works out as planned.

So with that, it does pain me to say that my involvement in the thread is likely to stay about the same moving forward. I may be more active during game days and I'll surely be around from time to time but this is the first year of my life where football has really fallen off of my radar in a major way.

Anyone, enough boring you all with the details. May the draft continue on.....

It's strange to me the Texans moved that 2nd round pick to get Osweiler off their cap but then have done nothing with that new cap space.

Don't get me wrong, I'm still expecting them to pick up either Cutler or Romo in training camp, but they really sat on their hands.

They went from being near the bottom in cap room to now they're like 6th in available. Last year FA class was so brutal, scared them?

Don't know, but they're on pace for $81 mil in space plus rollover next year. You can't use that much money. Should've spent more or kept BO

He had to go but not spending it, not even a dime, is hard to swallow with all the holes. They're so close but have fallen off pace

My god! 81 million in cap space next year. he has the same question Texan fans have: why make all the room and not use it?

Good luck. Better off taking the opportunity. It appears both of you have would have no problem getting jobs if shit doesn't work out...you can easily do the same shit. Look at the potential upside.

Damn jelly.

You get Trudea and we get stuck with Trump and the Pats.

Let us know what freedom tastes like once you get to Canada. And don't forget the ones you left behind.
