While Mario Williams is I'm sure a great selection, is it what Houston really needs? Even the Lions realized they needed to unload Harrington. Why not trade or do something with Carr? He might need an O-Line but he's really not exactly the future of the Texans if they want to win. Now they can't. They've signed Williams.

first off id like to state the texans are out of there mind they could have traded down and chose that player and got an extra draft pick.  Second i dont know why they would of chose reggie bush because even though he is good it is my understanding that they have a pretty good back and third but not least they do not need a quarterback because carr is a good player when your sacked continously its hard for any quarterback to do well.  There focus should be on offensive line and they should have traded there pick down for extra picks thats where they lost there mind

I agree, from watching him this season, it appears that he can still play at a high level. However, Bettis has to consider more than just his level of play with this decision. Personally, is he satisfied? Does he still have the drive to play? Is it still worth all the pain and hard work, and not being with his family? I'm sure the Steelers would welcome him back, but they do have two capable backs in Willie Parker and Duce Staley (if healthy).

I would have taken young too, from what I remember that's one of the reasons he was so excited to go into the draft in the first place was to be picked by the Texans.  don't get me wrong, Williams could be a good player, but I don't think the right fit for the team.  I just hope for the sake of the fans that your coaching staff knows something ever one else doesn't or has some kind of a plan.\n\nalso with picking young that would be a boost for the fan base, hell it would make me excited to see a home town boy make the team as a #1 pick!\n\noh and join the packers fans! we have a blast win, or loose!  were else would you see sold out every game for even a crummy season and life long waiting lists for season tickets! lol I am on it but I will probably have to put my spot in my will to any kids or grand kids I may have lol/

Brett at 50 is still going to be one of the best in the game. They guy should stay as long as he wants. He's a three time MVP, a leader, and a football player until he dies. His arm is sharp, his mental awareness is still good. He just needs a line and a supportive running game. Look at John Elway, as his career got longer they took a lot of the pressure off of Elway by giving  him a great running game. That is not happening for Brett, he's still carrying the entire team. He's a little past his prime to be carrying a bunch of lazy players. And on top of it all his line is lucky to give him 2-3 seconds in the pocket. He's almost running like David Carr is in Houston. And his running game is just horrible! With a better team around him, Brett will be back, if not I'm sure he'll retire. But like I said, he's still one of the best in the game. Just like Junior Seau, Mark Brunell, and Orlando Pace. Old men who just have football in their blood - they are all still great, just a bit past their prime.

Well from what I know neither really produce anything for their teams, Crayton hardly gets a pass his way and I don't think Caldwell is a big target for Brady, basically they are both one-week wonders.  Thats really what your going to find at this point in the season. Not to many players that haven't been active now will become active.  But its always possible as last season both Kevin Curtis (STL) and Ernest Wilford (JAX) became second half fantasy guys.  Keeps your eyes open for someone who does good for 2 weeks in a row, or who consistently is getting better.  Thats your best bet, Best Wishes :-)

I believe there is potential in Frye but the Browns always needed a quarterback.  I think offensive line upgrades would help them more.  Without the line a good quarterback will struggle.

I like the Texans pick of Mario Williams. When you only sack the opposing Qb 29 times in 16 games there is something to be said about that. They need a pass rusher for sure. Reggie Bush have never face a defense like any of the ones he will see in the NFC South. Carolina, Tampa, and ATL....come on!!! Then he will have the pressure of being the best athlete in to enter the draft in what was it ten years. Yo Saints....Joe Horn is 34....why not trade the pick to Greenbay for Walker and the #5 pick.

Raidehz....\nYou worthless piece of crapola you.\nI told you before the Raiders have the scheduling Gods on their side. No matter who they draft the Raiders get 8 or 9 wins this year. If they draft just one player who makes a difference they have 10 or 11 wins.\nMy beloved Patriots won't make the playoffs this year - they refused to partake in the free agency market and they're not that strong in the draft pick numbers. The owner, Bob Kraft, believes that too much $ is being spent on free agents, which sounds cheesy to me.\nHere's a prediction for ya - Colts just barely win half their games........Dolphins make the playoffs as long as Ricky plays well.\nSteelers repeat?\n\nBest Regards\nVog

1. Mario Williams, DE \n2. Reggie Bush, RB\n3. Matt Leinart, QB\n4. D'Brickashaw Ferguson, OT\n5. Vernon Davis, TE\n6. AJ Hawk, OLB\n7. Vince Young, QB\n8. Winston Justice, OT\n9. Michael Huff, CB/S\n10. Jay Cutler, QB\n\nLet me defend myself, "for the first time, there is legitimate reason to think that Reggie Bush is not going to be wind up in Houston. As of Monday, the Texans had not had any contract discussions with Bush and his representatives. Yet the Texans have approached defensive end Mario Williams, trying to see if he would be receptive to discussing a deal. But the evidence goes beyond contracts. When Bush was in Houston, a certain segment of the organization never introduced itself to the running back."

Well, my team is the Detroit Lions, and Joey is all but gone from Detroit.  With a decent offensive line, and a realistic offense to execute, Joey has the skills to be a quality quarterback in the NFL.  Steve Mariucci and his West Coast offense didn't get it done in Detroit.  Mariucci ran too many 6 yard sideline passes on 3rd and 8 to ever be successful.  With that offense, Johnny Unitas would have had a hard time succeeding.  I can easily see Joey Harrington coming to Detroit with another team and beating the Lions.

Not really a very strong team. They have some of the potential pieces, especially in Jon Kitna, the QB. Kitna could have a stellar game one week and stink up the place the next.  A receiver like Roy Williams can't do much without a consistent QB, and without balance, a RB like Jones won't be able to properly contribute (he'll either get overlooked or leaned on too much)

Saints need a solid QB and the texans have way to much $$$$ tied up in carr drafting him first overall a few yrs ago.......

I believe he may go back to the Jets where he began his NFL career. They are havin problems with quaterbacks right now so why not help with some WRs. They have already lost Wayne Chrebet so he'd fit in perfectly with Laverneus Coles by returning to his roots.

What happened to them? They don't show up at their games. The Browns play to lose and are the joke of the NFL.I've watched a few of their games this season and they always find a way to lose even if they have a team beat.San Diego played horribly against them and still won.maybe they can beat Detroit or something, MAYBE.

Happened about 5 hours ago, but yea, its a bad decision on Taxans behalf. If they werent gonna take Reggie, they shoulda got Vince, even though they still wont be winning, he would put butts in the seats. But good news is, with that dumb pick, the Texans will prob have the first pick next year so  they can get the Beast Adrian Peterson(Hopefully) or another good RB.

Sorry to lay it out like this, but it's not as bright as you think.  \n1. Daunte is hurt BAD...we'll see how much he can play this offseason when he needs to the reps with totally new receivers...if he misses a lot of the offseason, how can they establish timing?  Also, Daunte isn't really that good at the technical stuff...he had Cris Carter to tell him what to do in the huddle...Carter retired and he hasn't been as good.\n\n2.  Marcus Vick - A hothead who makes poor decisions. He should have gone to a Jr college so at least he could prove he has control over his demons...I mean, I can't say he has a brain in that head at all!  Why come out after that horrific year when you obviously don't need the money?  Just plain stupid.  Coach Saban has been nicknamed Coach Satan by some of his former players...not the most patient man in the world...I see this ending very badly for Vick.\n\n3.  I have always LOVED Harrington...he was never given support in Detroit but stayed positive until the end.  HOWEVER, this would be a disasterous situation for him to have to lead the team if Daunte can't go...he needs a very low pressure situation with a team a year or two away, not a team who's year is now, like Miami.  \n\nMiami will still have an uphill climb to win the division vs. New England.  Believe it or not, the Bills and Jets may see weak, but they could easily sweep Miami if the Fins look past that weeks contest....\n\nOn the bright side...I love that Derek Hagan pick, some say he went too high, but he can be a superstar with a little polishing

Well, I am laughing at the Texans right now. I am a Dallas fan. Thank God that they are not getting Bush. Now the Saints are going to be pretty good though. Brees and Bush. But who knows? This draft has been getting crazier ever since January 4.
