Offseason Tidbits

^^^ Dale Strahm, a Bronco guy before he came to Houston. He has since retired, I think sometime between 2012-13.

In other news, the team granted permission for Brian Gaine (director of pro personnel) to interview for the GM position with the Bears. Gaine has only been here a year, but it sure seems to me that the Texans improved their pro scouting efforts this year with some of these diamonds in the rough they kept discovering during the 2014 season.

Gaine was hired from the Dolphins where he had been an assistant GM under Jeff Ireland. He's part of the Parcells tree. If the Texans were ever going to "promote" Rick Smith out of the GM position, Gaine seems like a good candidate to replace him.
