Former Arizona Cardinals defensive end Antonio Smith cashed in on his team's trip to the Super Bowl by landing one of the top defensive end contracts in the past couple of years.
Smith, according to a source, agreed to a five-year, $35 million contract with the Houston Texans on Saturday that will pay him $24 million over the first three years of the contract.
Antonio Smith is a very good veteran to work opposite of Mario Williams. The Texans may have the best defensive line in the NFL, and if they can build around the defensive line and re-sign guys like Dunta Robinson for the secondary and get a some linebackers they could be a very respectful defense. If only the offense can get some consistency behind it this team could be scary in a couple of years.
