    Actually VY+Davis+Morency vs. Carr+Bush+Davis

    Davis = Davis, so remove them.

    VY+Morency vs. Carr+Bush

    All I'm trying to say is that no one can sure that VY would be that much of an improvement over Carr. I agree that VY will be eventually be better than Carr, but how much better? It's hard to say because Carr hasn't really been given the best chance to win. It just doesn't make sense to pass on Bush, one of the greatest RB prospects ever, for a guy who might not be much of an upgrade over what you already have.

    If everyone is so sure that VY is so much better than Carr, then why do all of the mock drafts show Leinart being taken ahead of him?

    go saints. i got to shake hands with bob mcnair and gary kubiak and coach slocum not on a mobile and it was all good.

    then i heard them all speak and i realized that barring a miracle they are making the wrong decision and do not think they will face much music for it. i hate it. they are showing no differentation between what vince has accomplished and what some other local and great athlete did/could've done.

    look at what a local presence can do for you. when the texans launched they had two player shows on the air. aaron glenn and steve mckinney. two houston guys. hell...steve is still on the air. the starting center of 'the weakest link' of the worst team still has a show...and it is the highest rated hour we air. this city will react like nothing you have ever seen. another example...someone on this board tell me the loudest roar the toyota center has heard this year. (hint - vince was on the jombotron)

    see ya texans.

    Saints? You think Vince will end up there?

    Anyway, casual fans don't care about Vince that much, and I've been around alot of Texans fans. So there will be no loud "roar". They will probably care for say a week and it's over. Kubiak knows what he's doing moreso than both of us. There is no point in crying about it.

    Well, that's mature.

    I'm in the Bush camp. I think picking VY would be a blunderous move because we'd be switching a good part for a good part. We'd be crappy for years to come.

    That said, if the Texans did choose VY, I certainly wouldn't turn my back on my team, much less root for another team. I would get my VY Texans jersey and root for my new player.

    To the one's who will change affiliations if the Texans don't pick VY: Grow up.

    Wow. You were actually serious when you said that a few weeks ago.

    Perhaps you and Rich Lord could get a group discount.

    Correction: Obtaining Bush doesn't lower the trade value of either Davis or Wells. Obtaining VY does exactly that for Carr.

    LOL, yes, how dare somebody who works for a sports radio station -- whose programming is primarily composed of people giving their opinions about sports -- give their opinion about sports.

    I really don't think any of us know more than Kubiak, Casserly, Mcnair & company. I'm pretty sure any NFL team in this situation would handle this the same way. Its not about Reggie Bush either, its about us not needing a quarterback right now.

    Your post above shows selfishness, you want whats best for you, not whats best for the Texans. Kind of like a spoiled kid who doesn't get what HE wants.

    Right, and we probably would keep Davis. On certain situations we could have Andre and Bush lining up at WR and Davis in the backfield. That would be sweet.

    Yeah, what a HUGE mistake it would have been not to draft Aaron Glen and Steve McKinney. I mean, if we hadn't drafted them we might only have 1 win instead of all the wins we had this past year.

    Wa wa wa my pee pee hurts! As had been pointed out as nauseum winning teams sell tickets, jerseys, ect... I don't care who they pick as long as the team gets better. Comments like this make me sick. BTW, I remember when the Rocks picked Horry instead of Harold "Baby Jordan" Minor - the crowd booed and whined like a bunch of girls. You never heard anyone complain about the pick after we won the 2 championships.
