do you think that the Texans shoulda picked Reggie Bush instead of Mario Williams?

Absolutely.  Nothing against Mario Williams as he was the best available defensive player.  The Texans needed a spark on offense.  Reggie Bush was a multidimensional weapon that would have caused havoc for defensive coordinators.  He would have also taken some of the pressure off of Carr.

NO WAY!\n\nHouston was stupid for not taking Bush, even if they didn't want him.\n\nThey could of taken Bush, and traded him for Mario Williams for less money and some players or draft picks.

1 mario williams, I mean that took balls, big ones. they should have traded out, but no they waste tons of p.r. on super mario. They did not listen to outside influence, or the fans, they went with their best choice. \nI am not sayin it was right, it just impressed me.

The Texans have a good all around RB in\nDominack Davis and their backup, Vernon Wells, is not that bad. Also the Texans just signed David Carr to a big deal.  What they need is a linemen. I'm from New York so I don't watch Texan's games much but when I did see them their Offensive line was dredful. The Texans should do this (and Im not just saying this because I'm from New York). They should trade their pick to the Jets and get the Jet's first pick and another pick. Assuming that Vince Young, Matt Leinart, and Reggie Bush go 1st 2nd 3rd that will leave the Texans with D'Brickashaw Fergueson. That's what they REALLY need. But... Reggie Bush is too hyped up to pass on so the Texans will choose Bush.

I am not of the school that thinks Reggie Bush won't still be a star.  I do.  I think his receiving game and his speed can still make him a top notch running back.  You can't make the statement that juking doesn't work in the NFL.  Barry Sanders made a career of it.  But when you compare Bush's hype to Vince Young's I think it is unfair.  The experts expected far more out of Reggie Bush in year 1 than Vince Young.  I don't think anyone expected Young to be starting in his 1st year.  I also can't jump on the "Vince Young is great" bandwagon.  He basically had one good game.  I think he has to share praise with Travis Henry for the improvement in the run game.  But to answer your question, I think Vince Young has exceeded his expectations and Bush has fallen short.  Even though Bush's expectations were astronomical.

this draft was full of great picks, bad picks, and surprise picks and players getting drafted high and players falling. \nNow i feel we are all in agreement when i say the Texans don't want to win football games, because they passed on Reggie bush. how can you say no to that. so damn stupid, and the whitner pick for bills was high, but if the bills took bunkley or ngata those two players where not good enough to go 8 eighter, and the lions said if the bills didn't take him they would of taken whitner so the bills did good there, and about mccargo Marv Levy saw someone he liked and got him, yes they could of waited, but who knows what could of happened and both of those players will start next year so those are both good picks. \n\ni say the surprise picks of the draft was tambi Hali for the chiefs and the Mathias kiwanuka for the giants, Hali isn't that bad seeing Jared Allen is the best dlinemen for the chiefs, and you can never have enough depth, but the giants had so many other holes, OT,OG,WR,DL,LB,DB de is the last thing they needed with osi, and stranhan i know mike is getting old, but they just needed so much more then Mathias kiwanuka they had justice,ryans,Howard,Jackson,countless numbers of DB i just think they messed up bad there.

I don't think it was necessarily a bad move - the BAD move was not trading the pick to any of the 10 teams that wanted Bush.  Trade the pick to New Orleans, get their 2nd pick for this year and their 2nd and 3rd next year and you can still get Williams!  The fact that this escaped the tiny little mind of the GM is reason enough for the people of Houston to be up in arms...he didn't bring home Bush or Young AND he didn't maximize their leverage?  Casserly is an idiot.

I would not kick him out this late in the season, Ronnie Brown is hurt, Reggie Bush is not as good of a fantasy player as some expected and Ben Watson is a TE, which normally score less points than other fantasy players, which mean they have lesser value to an outcome as a WR for example.

If I'm Houston, I take Reggie Bush for sure. He's a blazer with good hands, and you can't teach either of those skills. Drafting Vince Young might be tempting because of the Texas connection, but they should not  do it.\n\nYoung is an outstanding college quarterback, but he won't be able to have 200/200 games in the NFL. Texas runs their offense out of shotgun, which is not typical of NFL teams. He will have to learn a lot about dropping back before he can be any good in the pros.

The Texans trading down for Ferguson is possible, but Bush is like LeBron James of the NFL. The Texans can't afford to pass up on him.\n\nBut the biggest twist will probably be the Jets trading down, as they have dissapointed us Jets fans throughout the history of the NFL Draft.

Well it depends on where each teams weakpoint is at. You see if you are the Texans you got a good QB in carr but no good running backs, so they would draft bush, but if you are the 49ers then I would  go with Leinert because Alex Smith,(10 int 0TD), enough said.

The Bills probably should have taken a defensive end like Broderick Bunkly or Kamerion Wmbley.  Even Haloti Ngata at nose tackle would have been a good pick, Whitner is a good player, but I think they should have considered trading down a 4 or five spots and pick him up there.  The only team I think they had to worry about taking Whitner is Dallas, but they had the 18th pick,  So as long as the Bills stayed at 12 or 13 they would still get their man and may even pick up a late second or third round pick in the process.

Uh..........................................................I think they may take that running back from USC, what's his name????????????????????????????????????????????????????REGGIE BUSH. I mean, yes they have more problems than a little, and taking him will not address a BIG problem that they have (even though D.Davis is not healthy all the time). I mean, they need OL help (D'Brickshaw Ferguson would be a nice pick), a nice backup QB(VINCE YOUNG ANYONE???), D-LINE help(Mario Williams, AKA Little Julius Peppers), and they could get all that if they trade the no.1 pick. BUT, IF YOU KNEW U COULD PICK UP THE NEXT GALE SAYERS WITH THE NO.1 PICK, U WOULD IN A HEARTBEAT!!!

nope\ncmon, although hes almost identical to michael vick, hwo many ppl saw michael vick get injured for a LLOONG time? \nthe titans should've picked matt leinart. matt leinart is more ready for the nfl. he fits in with norm chow, nd he could easily bring tennessee to the playoffs. trust me, the titans made a BIGG mistake. dont be surprised if leinart brings arizona to the playoffs within 2 or 3 yrs.

Reggie Bush likely will have a better career...but it's possible that both are busts.  The NFL draft is generally crap.  Name the 2000, 01, 02, 03, 04 and 05 #1 draft picks...only one of them has been very good...but generally speaking I bet Reggie Bush will have a better one.

Earl Campbell got me interested into the longhorns. the way he played was outstanding. Also Ricky Williams. Even though now he is having problems and is suspended again, he was still arguably the best running back ever in college football. The best game that I saw the the longhorns play was against USC. All those people that said Reggie will destroy them didn't know nothing about longhorns football. Plus you never go bet against Vince Young in a Championship Game or stage. This year they will still be in the hunt for another championship. They still have Jamal Charles, Ramonce Taylor, Billy Pittman and Limus Sweed on offense.

I think Reggie Bush will get be Offensive Rookie of the year, even though he might be splitting time with Deuce...but Bush could play more than one position, so watch out for him at Wide Out, or returning punts. I think Mario Williams could be Defensive Rookie of the Year, because they compare him to Julius Peppers, and Juluis Peppers won a DROTY award.
