Texans Courting Garcia and Lelie

BRB hero John McClain reports that the Texans have been flirting with QB Jeff Garcia and WR Ashley Lelie.  Garcia seems like a perfect fit for Kubes' system - a mobile, veteran QB who is tough and manages a game well.  Lelie, on the other hand, seems like a perfect fit, well, in the sense that he's an ex-Bronco.  I never thought I'd find myself saying this, but after watching Garcia rally the Eagles this past season, I would be thrilled to have JG as the Texans' QB in 2007.  A Garcia-Rosenfels combination at QB would be fantastic until Andre Woodson is ready to take over in 2009 or 2010.

Zuh?
Chris, where are you hearing that?  I knew that the Raiders were interested, but I didn't even know they'd made him an offer.
Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...

It was a Chiefs messageboard
Not too reliable and I haven't had the time to look it up.

There are a lot of rumors today that seemingly can only be substantiated if you actually heard the radio show.

Raiders NOT at the table...
Sounds like negotiations b/n Garcia & the Raiders have stalled.
We can be critical of the draft picks, but in the end we always support the new Texan.

BUCS
Tampa Bay & Jeff Garcia are now sleeping in the same bed, and have apparently already consumated the relationship.

And after doing a bit more research, it seems that the Bucs have also traded for Jake Plummer, for a 'conditional' pick in the 2008 Draft.  

This all seems very fishy to me, as it appears that Gruden is reading BRB and stealing our ideas.  We may need to beef up the security system.

Redirecting Traffic
After posting this response, I started this Diary for everyone to comment on these events.

Again, I apologize for all the jumping around.  But it just felt right to have this as its own topic.

Lelie Gone Too
Looks like another of the targets opted to sign elsewhere... Ashely Lelie is a 49er .

Can't say I'm too broken up about this one.  I think Lelie is Corey Bradford.

Scott's Boy Michael Lewis Gone Too
This note was in the same San Francisco Chronicle article cited above, but seems not to have gotten nearly the same amount of press.

Scott's #1 free agent wish didn't come true... Michael Lewis signed with the Niners as well .
