Mostly stuff u guys know already

EDIT: Sorry about the layout...

Edit: Here is another piece...

Xavier Adibi and Zach Diles are sharing the reps at weak-side linebacker during Texans Organized Team Activities.

Adibi has superior range and cover skills, but Diles is better versus the run. The winner here could push for 80-90 tackles. Cato June is not in the mix. Source: houstontexans.com Related: Cato June, Zach Diles

Texans fourth-round pick Glover Quin has stood out at OTAs so far.
The former New Mexico Lobo has four practice picks already. "He just seems like he makes a play every day," coach Gary Kubiak said. "He’s got a knack for getting his hands on the ball." The coaches considered moving Quinn to safety after drafting him, but he's been too good to downgrade positions. Source: houstontexans.com


		Texans RB Ryan Moats has reportedly shown "tremendous speed" during Organized Team Activities. Moats' game lacks in other areas, but he's always been a burner. He's ahead of Chris Brown on the depth chart, though only by a hair. Coach Gary Kubiak appears to be hoping Brown wins the job and emerges as his go-to back in short-yardage situations. Moats could then be No. 3 and play special teams. Source: houstontexans.com

Dominique Barber has taken some reps with the first-team defense at Texans Organized Team Activities.
He's currently behind Nick Ferguson on the depth chart, but Ferguson is 34 and couldn't keep the job last year. Barber should beat him out in August. Source: houstontexans.com Related: Nick Ferguson
