What do you guys think about Texans taking M.Williams over reggie bush in the draft.?

I heard this analysis and it made sense to me.\n\nTake the names out of it.  Houston needs lots of help, especially defense and on the offensive line.\n\nWould you rather have a guy that can contribute 60-70 plays a game or one that would be able to contribute only 15-20 plays a game.\n\nBush is special, but he can only help when he touches the ball.  He is not a workhorse that can carry the load of 30-35 carries per game, but Williams will be able to run every play on defense, as he is not just a pass rusher, but a great run stopper as well.\n\nAll this was done as a football decision, not just because of a highlight reel.

The Texans are 5 yrs old.  You dont build a franchise around a DE...what moron made that decision.  I am not a Bush Fan cause I am a Horns Fan.  But you cant deny the fact that he is a big play guy.  He is a threat at RB, WR, KR, PR and anything else he decides to do.  Young is a great QB but the Texans have aready invested 5 yrs in Carr.  They should have taken Bush and build their franchise around Carr, Bush and Davis....what complete idiot takes a DE with the 1st pick in the draft....whats the best he is going to contribute...a sack a game?

The Houston Texans said last week that they wanted to make sure whoever they drafted would be in camp on time. They did not believe that Reggie Bush's agent would accept their contract offer. Since they had Mario Williams rated almost equal and his agent was easier to deal with they knew they could get a deal done right away. Also the Texans have several good running backs and an awful pass rush. Now they have filled one of the key spots with the highest rated defensive lineman to come around in many years.

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.

For a few reasons:\n\n1.  Bush is over rated, and is not an every down back.  They already have an outside runner in  Dominick Davis.  An inside runner is what they lacked\n\n2.  Mario Williams will fill a bigger need for them\n\n3.  Bush would have been and will be nearly impossible to sign with the Texans current cap restictions\n\n4.  Mario was willing to sign for less money\n\n5.  The Texans are smarter than to fall for media hype instead of making a sound football decision

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.

Are you kidding. If they don't take Reggie Bush they are idiots. He is probably the most versatile player in this years draft and probably the last 10 years. He has the shiftiness and breakaway speed the Barry Sanders had, but has the hands and ability to catch of a wide receiver, and can return kicks. He is the whole package. \n\nThe only reason you are hearing about Mario Williams is to throw other teams off into thinking they might not take Reggie Bush and to see how other teams rate Reggie. They will definitely take Reggie Bush.

Yes Reggie bush is overrated. No doubt he is a very talented athlete. But he was surrounded by an outstanding supporting cast. From His QB, O-line, DEFENSE, and not to mention his partner in the backfield. He is talented but any back of the same caliber would have the same success as Mr Bush.

I think he needs alot more playing time. I believe he may have already proven or established what he could do and what he was capabale of as a rookie. Im not sure he will ever become one of the greatest WR's but he has alot of potential and with two great quaterbacks throwing the football around in Jacksonville Matt Jones has plenty of opportunity. Reggie Williams doesn't seem to be the greatest WR they have at No. 2 and if M. Jones were to take his pace his talent could only increase. Reggie Williams may have to settle, get traded or something because I believe M. Jones did more then he did as far as his rookie season. I just think M. Jones could help Jacksonville win some games and go further in the playoffs. Its possible and he also may have alot to learn from the Veteran Jimmy Williams. Everything seems bright in M. Jones future to me.

not great back you got there, but i would sit leon, he is not very good and splitting time, i would go with jones-drew, and willams jones-drew is a play maker and can get you some points receving and rushing if he get the ball in his hands and williams is a strong runner with the same thing can rack up some yards if he get the ball in his hands

If the Texans dont keep Reggie Bush and improve that team they are doomed.\n\nReggie Bush all the way.

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 still can't believe they passed on Reggie Bush. I think that   Mario Williams may be just as good of a player but he has some big shoes to fill. The Texans attendance has gotten progressively worse since their first year and they need to sell tickets.  The fans were screaming for Vince Young but over a few months they warmed alittle to the idea of Bush only to not get either.  The QB and RB position have so many more measurable also it makes it very hard for a DE to keep up in popularity.  A QB has passer rating, yards, TD and YDs to be judged by and a RB has rushing yds, catches, tds and YDS/rush. All a DE has is sacks to be measured by.  Even if Mario Williams turns out to be the best DE of his era.  In order to be justified to Texans fans he also has to be better than Bush and Young which is unlikely.

I'd say Reggie. I feel like Young is going to get injured if he runs frequently. I like Vince Young really, but I think it's going to be Bush that gets the 1st overall pick.

Yes! I think the only reason he isn't considered to be so good is because Memphis didnt have a great season so DeAngelo's season was overshadowed by that. Reggie Bush on the other hand is exceptionally good but c'mon, with the holes that USC's O-line created for him...any running back could've scored. Memphis didn't hav a good O-line at all but DeAngelo Williams was still able to make stuff out of it. If that were Reggie Bush instead of DeAngelo Williams playing for Memphis, Reggie wouldn't have been able to score so much. DeAngelo Williams is the best running back in the draft right now. I dont care what anyone else says.

I think the Texans will have their best season yet. With the acquisitions of Flannagan (C) and Moulds (WR) and after the draft Heisman winner Reggie Bush the Texans look good on paper. David Carr is the only question mark but with a seasoned OL and how it stands right now with a solid back in Dominck Davis and perhaps Reggie Bush alot of pressure will be taken off of him. And look at the division they are in its pretty weak with the exception of the Colts, the titans are going to lose McNair and Jacksonville has never been good. With all the accusations and what seems to be a pretty good draft coming their way look for Houston to go 8-8 or 9-7.

Yes....they are.  Complete morons.  They picked a guy for their number one draft pick, who couldn't record a sack against three division three schools.  That is not a number one draft pick. Oh...and Reggie Bush was right there....but I guess Domanick Davis is the answer.  HHHHHAAAAA!
