I'm not sure McClain is right on his cap totals... I think he's going with some numbers that have been floating around lately but I'm not sure those numbers are correct. I think most numbers are estimates and you have to be a front office person to actually know the real deal...
Don't the Texans still have that cap guru guy they hired about 3 or 4 years ago? Seems like he was from Washington or New England or some place in the Northeast.... Someone like that can tuck and fold contracts to his liking... "objects in your rear view mirror are closer than they appear"....
There's several cuts/loss to free agency coming up that may or may not happen: JJ, Okoye, Butler to name a few....
We'll have to wait for the new CBA but I've read several things about how it's going to be OK to go over the cap.... Not sure how much truth there is in that....
What I'm saying here is, I think they are going to get him. I really do.
Edit: Doh! Keith covered much of this in post #2.
