Heck yeah. I've brought up Gray's name here before, like

Well, he maybe didn't want Gray because he interviewed against him for the HC position. Awkward! So I don't think Gray was a serious DC candidate back then, but if Kubiak is serious about giving someone other than Frank Bush a shot, then Gray ought to be heard from again.
But as you say, Kubiak is probably more interested in hiring the familiar.
Speaking of...

Wow, how did I not think of this? Seems like an ideal hire for Kubiak. Would need to find a way to get the Chiefs to allow him to interview here, a la with something more than a lateral move, assuming Gibbs the Younger is still employed by KC in 2009 (situation with asst. coaches in KC is somewhat up in the air I think). Anyway, just asking him to be our DB coach if he is retained by KC would require their permission if I understand the rules correctly here.
