One less position to worry about this offseason.

Solid signing. It would still be awesome to see them pay a little for Chris Meyers in Houston. Monty is a decent center but he'd be a great backup!

I don't think Houston will let Meyers walk. Should get a new contract before the 13th.

That's what I have been hearing, but with their need to pin down Mario and Arian, do you think it's possible they will get Meyers signed too?

Good signing, monty did a nice job for us last year

What I've heard down here is that Mario is the odd man out.

My friends who live in Houston have also said they think mario is as good as gone as well.

Man, I hope he does not end up in Dallas. That would not be good!

Anyway, I would still like to see us bring in at least one more interior lineman to compete with Licht and Hurt. We need a starter there, the guys we have seem to be good depth.

I don't think he'll get much attention from 3-4 teams, and even if he does, he will likely choose a 4-3 team. I'm betting he ends up in Tennessee or Tampa - darkhorse is New Orleans (Greggggg is still looking for his next Kearse).

So he might end up in St. Louis?

Oh yeah, them too.

I agree he needs to be a back up where he would be a very good one as opposed to a marginal starter, but its a good signing. I dont know that meyers is gonna go free anyway.

Apparently the Packers are preparing for the absence of Scott Wells by going after Meyers.

Regardless, it looks like the front office is set on Monty. Let's hope we upgrade his backup because when he switched over to guard, we suffered.

A little update on the numbers, Montgomery's new contract is reportedly $12 million over four years-$3.5 million this year, $2.1 million in his second year, $3 million in 2014 and $3.4 million in the final year of the contract.

Considering he made $685K this past season this new contract is a decided upgrade in terms of payment for services rendered.
