Its a diffence in knowing when to run...but vince isnt your average running QB..he's a play maker...i think he will read defenses better than any one...i think the lienart will take the plunge with the heisman curse(injuries)(unless he goes to TITANs hehe

That's tough. I like Jim McMahon and Steve Young. They were both good in College and won Super Bowls in the NFL. I guess since Young is in the Hall of Fame, that would give him the leg up. Ty Detmer put up great numbers at BYU, but did nothing in the NFL. My heart says McMahon. My brain says Young.

I think they could have traded down and still got him lower in the draft I mean he should be a good player but Dante Whitner did not deserve to go number 8 most strategists had him going late first early second round.

I think it was very bad move for the Chemistry of the Ravens. Boller has worked very hard to get that spot and then they just supplant him. Yes Steve is a proven qb but he is late to learn the system, and that is always a huge factor in weather qb's succeed or not. I think Mcnair should be #2 unless he flat out beats out Boller in camp and preseason. He should ride the pine until Boller sputters. \nI think Boller is haveing trouble with the pressure starting the season, and early in the season there is not much film on teams that he can study, so that leads him off on a bad foot gettin started, and it can do alot to his confidence. I think that is why he did so good there at the end. \nThe browns were getting very good towards the end of the year, and gave my Bengals fits late as well. We did not look like a team that just beat eventual SB winners pittsburg.So i would not judge Boller too much on that.

I think Vince Young and the Titans can pull it together next year and give the Colts and Jaguars tough games next year. Since Vince Young is under going a season and with a season under his belt, he will be more seasoned next year.

Reggie Bush will make an impact even if it is just on kick returns and such he is just a player that cant not make an impact. then if either Leinart or Young play you have to expect one of them to be successful. Mario Williams was a waste of a first pick.

Questionable since Billy Volek has some big game experience under the current system and has started for the Titans on many occasions.  However, they did get Vince Young at #3 ... but I wouldn't rush him into the game right away.  \n\nI would give Young a year to study under Volek.  However, he could start a few games depending on Volek's performance.

I think they made a good move.  How does someone pass up someone of his caliber?\n\nThey will fit him in.  The idea is to run both McAllister and Bush, kind of like that whole "thunder and lightning" cliche you hear all the time.  Plus McAllister is coming off ACL surgery, and most of the time those players are never the same.\n\nIt would be good for them because then both will probably be taking less punishment (Bush because he is smaller, McAllister because of his knee) and thus last longer into the season.\n\nOf course, there were probably a million different scenarios that could have played out.  In the end, we don't know what other teams offered the Saints for their spot.  If some team offered like 5 first round picks then they made a bad move.  But given the knowledge we do know I think they made the right choice.

Matt Leinart--he is more ready to be an NFL quarterback, based on his work ethic, smarts, and ability to read defenses.  \n\nWhy not to take Vince Young:\n1) mechanics are terrible\n2) shotgun QB--offenses in the NFL don't do this, Alex Smith was the latest shotgun QB to come out, and look how he's doing.  i want to see him take 3 and 4 step drops and consistently hit guys on 15 -20 yard outs.\n3) his athleticism hurts him--he tries to be like michael vick, but he's not NEARLY the athlete vick is.  he won't be able to run in the NFL like he did in college.  his coach in college, Mack Brown, said "he does better when we stop coaching him and let his athleticism take over".  bad news if you're an NFL coach looking to teach a young guy the basics of the NFL game.\n4) he's a coward--he is the QB with the most skepticism about him in the draft, and he refused to work out at the combine.  rather he held his own workout, at his own field, with his own receivers.  that's not a good sign for me if i'm a scout looking to see VY compared to everyone else in the draft\n5) he's a dunce--scoring a 6 and a 16 on the Wonderlic exam.  i realize intelligence isn't everything, but it is the way the game is shifting.  look at the QB's to make the playoffs last season: Manning, Palmer, Brady, Roethlisberger, Leftwich, Plummer, Hasselbeck, Delhomme, Simms, Brunell, Manning, Grossman.  All intelligent, drop-back passers.  VY's type of QB is not a winning type in the league.\n\nFor all of those reasons, you almost have to choose AGAINST Vince rather than choose FOR someone else.  \n\nand for all the Young-lovers, get over the Rose Bowl performance (against a swiss cheese USC D), and accept that he will STRUGGLE in the NFL.  this is big boy football now...

Matt Lienart and Vince Young will both be good quarterbacks but from the following quotes\n\nLendale White USC running back\n“I would never trade away the three years with Matt as my quarterback,” White told the Denver Post. “But if I was an NFL team, I don’t know how you could not take Vince Young."\n\nJoe Montana one of the best NFL Quarterbacks ever\n"I think he's a step above the other two,"\n\nSo if my favourite quarterback and the runningback in Leinarts team would choose young over leinart who am I to disagree

I do, actually thats why I posted earlier on who would be the best pick in this draft.  Of course I picked a blue chip.  But no1 knows this guy at ALL.  People listen to the media more than anything. And Im reading these answers and they really aren't backing their stuff up!  Williams never had the spotlight in his 4 years at Memphis (Hello its Memphis, not USC with Leinart and NFL Talents especially on the OFFENSIVE LINE).  He can run the ball 50 times a game, run for 2000 yards, durable, power yet with shifty moves.  I compare him to an Edgerrin James, Shaun Alexander kind of back.  Memphis passing offense stunk yet Williams helped them pull through a couple of games against some good teams.  Of Course Bush will get the spotlight, and he deserves it too but as for the NFL i think durability is a much bigger factor than returning kickoffs and punt returns for tds (which is a lot more rare in the NFL).  Bush also split carries with LenDale White.  Not saying hes a bad runner, but I compare bush to Brian Westbrook of the eagles.  And westbrook is not an in between runner.  Ok I could go on. LOL but I think its a definate possibility that Williams could be better.  But If you really want the best player in the draft i'd put my hopes in Vince Young.

I think it will be R. Bush. Vince Young is more of a run first , then pass type of QB and it is not best for a team in the NFL. Kind of like Michael Vick. Vick himself is alright, but too overrated. But, his team is not good at all. So the houston texans should get Bush although I really like the hometown player, Vince Young.

They'd be dumb not to draft Reggie Bush. They just signed Carr to a big contract so there's not need for Vince Young. Yes, they have Domanik Davis but lots of NFL teams have two good backs these days. Look at Dever (Tatum Bell and Mike Anderson) and Kansas City (Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson). Reggie Bush is going to be a great running back and the Texans can't afford to pass up on him.

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.

From Houston here.  Most people around here are in love with Vince Young, but most are seeing the light and accepting the fact that Reggie Bush is simply the better pick.  But WAIT!  According to the Houston Chronicle, the Texans are miffed about what Bush is asking for in his contract, and indicating that it might be way too much.  On this note, there has been much talk about drafting DE Mario Williams, who could be awesome on defense.  For now, though, Bush is the man, in my opinion.

Difficult question to answer since the 2006 episode would have been subtitled "Vince Young carries UT on his back to a National Championship". Honestly the man should stay in another year. If nothing else the prospect of being drafted by the 'Aints should scare him into another season at UT.
