    Listening to Lance Zerlein and looking back on positions we drafted, I’m ok with what happened. Every player we drafted plays a position of need. Even if i didn’t like the name...

    It’s a process. Gaine didn’t have his guys and basically used Ricks guys.

    Who's guy it is is a bigger deal than it should be. Gaine was one of Rick's guys and should be familiar with others on staff. He pretty much just got promoted from assistant GM to GM after taking a year off.

    Disagree. Gaine could be telling his scouts to look for bigger and faster being that he was a “Parcells guy”

    Plus the Texans currently have plenty of cap room.

    Seems to be a common theme amongst Texans players.

    Or maybe as fans we overrate the talent level on the team.

    I don' think so. We have a good team. Just can' seem to put everything together. You know how it is. Cool aid, no sugar. Ham, no burger.
