    I like the accuracy. Hit the moving target perfectly. Not that I would expect anything less from the NCAA passing efficiency leader.

    You and Casserly snuggling in the deer blind?

    It would appear that his Rac-Ac has been outstanding from an early age! Notice how the guys on the bike are still moving after the perfectly thrown pass!!

    Steve Young.

    I would guess I lot of other guys were at least near 4.5s like Elway, McNair, Cunnginham, Staubach, Flutie. Don't remember any of these guys getting caught from behind much.

    I figured you would've learned by now that things aren't over until the game
    (and in this case, the draft) is played.

    I don't think any of those guys had 4.4 speed, maybe 4.6 or so.....and Young would be my guess as the fastest.....of those you mentioned.

    But not the size and strength of Vince as well......

    Vince is a unique player, never before seen in the NFL......and he SHOULD be a Texan.

    I don't think Vince will run a 4.4 at the combine.

    I am pretty sure Steve Young ran a 4.5 or sub 40.

    Right now I agree. Athleticsm, size, AND composure, workethic and leadership not seen before at least in the college ranks.

    Barring a sub-par for the NFL arm or/and mental assessments there is no way I wouldn't take him #1. The rest of his flaws I am sure can be developed/tutored.

    Simple fact you can't get away from. There is no way Texans can have Young and Carr on the same team. The fans will make it impossible for Carr to function and why would you have a Carr on the bench with Young playing? Carr's trade value probably is not enough to entice the Texans to get rid of him
    I think the Texans will be logical and draft Bush. I think the first time the defense trys to sack Carr and Bush speeds by on the way to the end zone with his speed, I think Carr's life and fortune will greatly improve. Nothing makes a defense respect a quarterback as much as a good running game. I would hjope we could get another good end and some ofensive line help with our other picks. Despite the box office appeal of Young, I just dont see it unless a good good trade possiblity comes up for Carr.

    I don't think Vince is going to run at the combine, Bush probably won't either.

    I think it is a toss up, but I believe that the fans pressure to take the home town hero will win out.

    And, I for one think that is the right pick.

    Lots of good running backs out there, hell, Parker in Pittsburgh is like Bush and he was undrafted.

    But VERY few athletic freaks at the QB position.

    he said on the radio he would throw at the combine...but i'm like you..i'm betting neither he nor Bush runs at the combine. they have nothing to gain from that at all.

    Rivers and Brees?

    Young and Montana?

    Plenty of teams have 2 good QBs on the same team....

    Draft Vince, and trade Carr or give Carr a chance to keep the job...what is wrong with compeition?
