Marcus Coleman was on 1560 the next morning and basically said most people around the league think the Texans are a joke and made it very clear that he does not think much of Rick Smith. Said that the only reason Smith got a front office opportunity was because he was basically a mole in the locker room in Denver. Not encouraging.
Since Smith has been here, what contracts has he had to negotiate with good players who actually had some leverage? Off the top of my head, Dunta, Demeco, Owen, and AJ. There were significant issues with all of these negotiations. Dunta blew up. Demeco and Owen eventually signed but it was not easy and it looked like both of them might blow up for a while. All of these things are adding up to a not-so-pretty picture.
