You won't have to wait till draft day, typically teams with the number 1 pick start negotiations with their guy before the draft, I think David Carr was actually signed before the draft.
If Bush does not come out and Casserly and CO. do NOT take VY, you will see rioting in the streets. Can you imagine the backlash? Reliant will be burned to the ground, season tickets will be turned back in, and anyone associated with the Texans franchise will be run out of town. Charlie C had better pray that Bush comes out, for that reason alone.
One has to wonder Fatty's motivations, the same guy who was arguing for b.j. symons, a fellow tech grad to start before the season started. Here's to Carr blowing out his knee so we can finally have a decent quarterback at the helm. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=100937&page=2&pp=30&highlight=symons be carefull fatty, that search function is a mofo
As I said, that was done humorously. But, when you look at BJ's stats, it also makes you wonder how well VY will do in the NFL. There's no guarantees, and Carr has been anything but a Harrington.
I haven't seen or heard him say his preference, but I do know he has commented in the past how he thought it would be fun going to the 49ers to play with Alex Smith (his highschool QB).
I REALLY hope Bush comes out. Yeah, it sucks hearing all of us argue back and forth like school girls for the next couple months, but I really have no freaking clue what the Texans would do if Bush doesn't come out. I would much rather draft Vince than trade down if those are the options. This team needs a shot of energy, and at least as far as the draft is considered I think that can only be given by Bush or Vince.
I don't hate anybody. I just want Bush with the Texans next season so we can have an offense like the Chargers sooner than later.
If this team's (and your's) ultimate goal is to be like... the Chargers?!?... then I seriously quesiton some of the knowledge being spewed around here.
Dude I said have a good offensive team like the Chargers I didn't say I want to be them.. The Chargers are one the best offensive teams in the AFC. Bush is a L.T. type of player and Carr can be as good as Brees or better.
WTF?!? Carr has never been spectacular in his 4 years here. Solid... at times behind a horrible O-line... but spectacular? Never. I think he's tough. I think he makes decent throws when given time. I don't think he's a good leader and I don't think he'll take the texans to the promised land. I think Bush would be the safe pick but I'm tired of safe. The texans have played safe ball for 4 years and it got Capers run out of town. Time to roll the dice, and go for the Home Run. Lets go with a QB who has the potential to be spectacular and not just solid. (Note: Remember those spectacular games this season when Carr's QB rating was in single digits? I can't wait for more of those...)
The Chargers are so Chuck Norris awesome, they ranked 10th in yds/g this past season and 10th in yds/g in 2004. Meanwhile, Denver (with Kubiak) ranked 5th the past two seasons. WTF are you thinking?
If Bush turns out to be the next Barry Sanders would you consider that a home run? Both of these players have the chance to be great. The safe move would be trading down IMO. I can't make up my mind on this. My mind changes daily on what the Texans should do. Hard decision for the Texans.
Yes I would. Thats why I think Bush is the safe pick... although I think he's more like Eric Metcalf than Barry Sanders How would trading out of the position to draft one of 2 players that has a chance to be great be a safe move? Sounds foolish to me. I hope they examine all posiblilites (including trading down if the price is very very high) then draft the best player available.
As much as I think Bush would be a better fit than Young, it's cool to see Vince pining away for Houston. Bush doesn't seem to be in that same frame of mind. That irks me a little bit.
