Anybody watching or listening, please update all of us working stiffs as soon as he makes the announcement.
that really is the best thing that could happen to the value of that #1 pick.... Well, I take that back. If Bush doesn't come out, Titans go on panic mode and might offer a package for that pick.
in my opinion...there is no greater value that can be had with that pick for the HOUSTON TEXANS than taking VY.
Man, it's amazing how 4 months (or, one game) can change a LOT of opinions. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=101724 Not picking on you Max... my opinion on Young's NFL future changed also. But I think people need to realize both Bush and Young were unreal in college and both got a lot of media play. The Texans will be able to do a lot of evaluations between now and the draft and fight through the hype (I hope anyhow).
Memo to MadMax....you just got nailed by THE ADMINISTRATOR! Be careful how you sit down this afternoon....last time Clutch nailed me like this I had to put an inner tube on my office chair!
Some of us have been on the Vince bandwagon all along...especially this year. Vince and Reggie are both special, but I prefer to have a QB be the team leader....and if I had a choice between a special RB or QB....I take the QB hands down. DD
Who's opinion on VY DIDN'T change in the last 4 months??? Seriously...we have MORE information now then we did then. The guy has played about twice as many games at the college level as he had by the time I said that. I have maintained over and over again that taking ANY player is a risk. You have no idea how anyone is going to turn out. I think the potential upside of VY is so great both on and off the field, that I think it's where the highest value is. Would I have said that back in early to mid September?? Clearly not. But the information is in. All that's left are combines and wunderlich tests. There aren't any more games to show the rest of the NFL what great football players they are. ...and if VY breaks his leg tomorrow on the way to McDonald's, my opinion might change again.
Normally I respect your opinion MadMax, but since I believe both you and Chance have stated your more VY fans than Texan fans and will become fans of whatever team he is on, I stopped valuing your opinion on what's best for the Texans. Not trying to just pick on you Max, but it seems that too many people in Houston are so focused on VY that it is imposible to have an unbiased opion. I don't blame you b/c if A&M had a player of his calliber, I would probably be the same way.
Reggietodd, dude, you are setting yourself up to be quite the idiot. Maybe you have already succeeded. Others have corrected about the erroneous Texans’ story that they had committed to Bush without fully evaluating him in person, or alternatives. It is a long time before draft day and if the Texans’ are run worth a darn all options for using or trading the #1 pick will be considered. So make your case for Bush, fine, leave it at that.
Reggie- Weren't you the one calling UT fans "classless" because some were calling you out on the dumb predictions you made in the RoseBowl forum? What do you call this?
