Nerdy Football Analysis: Earlier this off-season Houston shipped one of the best receivers in the game, DeAndre Hopkins, to Arizona for a second-round pick. The Texans will now feature a base offense of David Johnson, Brandin Cooks, Will Fuller and Randall Cobb at the skill positions. Remember those lofty contracts the Rams paid for Toddy Gurley and Cooks in 2018? The dead cap hit over the next two seasons is going to be punitive.
