    I think there's a QB from USC that is going to go a couple of picks before Vince. As exciting as Vince is, he's still not a pro caliber QB. His TD to Int. ratio still needs work, but damn he can get away from just about anybody. Oh yeah..the last time Jimmy coached it really didn't turn out much better than what the Texans have already.

    Well, maybe Carr can throw the ball to Vince :) What position does Vince Young project to anyway?

    Having Bradford and Gaffney as the secondary receivers is terrible. Bradford can't catch and Gaffney, well he just sucks. The running backs aren't running or blocking. Are there any useful tight ends on the roster?

    I would like to see David SUV grow his hair out this time until he gets traded. I'll take Vernon Maxwell over this dude. Why did we cut B.J.? He was the heir apparent to this guy.

    Well the Texans had to draft Boseli so they could also draft Seth Payne and Gary Walker. It might not look like a great move now, but at that time they were all solid picks.

    I believe the original plan was to build an offensive line first and not subject Carr to the Dan Pasteroni/Jim Plunket-esque shots.

    Somehow that all changed during the summer because our other QB's were so incredibly inept and we just threw Carr out there.

    That was just a dumb management decision - a microcosm of the Texans' failures as an organization.

    The smartest person in this fiasco was Michael Vick who purposely left school early (a move uncommon a couple of years ago), just to avoid this exact scenario.

    Im not sure who decided to make the decision but it was a bad one. It couldve been Capers (Win early at all cost Mr. Carolina Panther), Casserly (Mr. Babin/Joppru/Buchannon/Gafney/Hollings), or just McNair.

    Carson Palmer is probably laughing his arse off.

    Carr has a serious case of 'nervous feet' in the pocket.
