Who should the Houston Texans take in the 1st Rnd of the 2006 NFL draft?

Although there are many rumors of the Houston Texans taking Mario Williams with the first pick, they should take Reggie Bush. Reggie Bush has been the consensus #1 pick since the Rose Bowl at the end of his magnificent USC career. Bush put up a very strong performance on his pro day, running well and wowing in the bench press (24 repetitions of 225 pounds). The Texans had a good visit with him after his workout, and the team is expected to start negotiating a contract in the coming days. Houston coach Gary Kubiak told Bush he envisions using the multi-talented star in the same manner the Trojans did – 30-plus touches split between running back, wide receiver and special teams. Obviously, their man is Reggie Bush.

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.

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.

#1:Reggie Bush,I know the Texans have the ReturnMan Spot locked down(Jerome Mathis 66 Returns 1610 Yds 2 Tds,Rookie,Pro Bowl) but so many people r saying that Domanick Davis Is such a great back but he didnt have very good stats( 976 Yards and 2 rushing TDs;but he did have 4 recieving TDs) but that isnt good enough to win u many games and Reggie can produce much more than that.(Reppin SE 619!!!)\n\n#2:Saints;They cannot trade down,They should draft Mario Williams,NC State he has great potential and amazing talent he remind me of Julius Peppers who was drafted #2 overall\nand they are similar in size and playing style          (JP:6-7,283;MW:6-7,290)\n\n#3:Matt Leinart,Titans Offensive Coordinator Norm Chow was M.L.'s Oc at USC so he knows him pretty well and with Mc Nair Probably Leaving they'll need him..\n\nSE 619

The Texans are on the verge of being respectable.  One of their problems is that they play in a tough division.  They have to play Indy twice every season.  And depending on how the other teams are doing they also have to contend with Jacksonville and the Titans.\n\nI don't think David Carr is their answer.  Everyone thinks he just needs a good line and then he will blossom.  Well I have a feeling after this season we will see him leaving Houston.  He has been banged up so much that I think he is constantly thinking about the sack.  This will prevent him from being successful.\n\nReggie Bush will not be the answer either.  Houston already has a respectable RB.\n\nThe current rumor (which is probably false) is that Houston is seriously considering trading down.  They don't want to have to take Bush.  The problem is finding a partner. \n\nThe Saints won't trade up.  In fact they are looking to trade down.  The Titans and Jets are probably comfortable where they are. \n\nThe Packers could use Bush, but they are sitting pretty at number 5.  They will find a quality player to fit their many needs at this spot.\n\nSF or Oakland might be interesting positions.  Both of them could use Bush and that is not too far for Houston to fall and still pick up quality.\n\nWhat's going to happen? No one knows for sure, but I think Houston is hoping to come in 2nd in their division and maybe a chance at a Wildcard spot.

first off draft was on saturday, and you posted this 2 hours ago. either you live on the moon and get late brodcasting. or you were in coma and just woke up. reggie bush should of been picked 1st, but the texans had a different team need. they already had a long term qb, so they wouldnt sign cutler, young, or leinart. i thought they should pick bush but no deal. it actually doesnt really matter, bush should have gone first no matter who was drafting first. why would you move up to the first pick to draft someone different?

They obviously went with a need pick. Their DL last year was pretty bad. Not picking Bush means that Domanick Davis IS healthy. It's a tough call, would you take Bruce Smith or Marshall Faulk in their prime? I'm just glad Houston didn't take Bush cuz I wanna see Reggie play for many, many years. Houston now has Kubiak which has installed Denver's offense. Denver's offense is harsh on RBs. RBs don't usually last there.

Jay Cutler should be the first pick.\n\nHe's coming off a great combine and I believe Bush is overrated. Bush was a great college player on a great team. But, he will get drafted by a bad team. NAME one running back that has carried his team to the Super Bowl. None. A good quarterback or good defense has more impact to a team than a great running back.

The texans will take Bush.\n\nHow could you not take the best offensive weopen to come out since Barry Sanders.

Let's assume that the draft goes as expected, and the first six picks are Reggie Bush, Mario Williams, Matt Leinart, D'Brickashaw Ferguson, A.J. Hawk and Vernon Davis.  Now - that would leave Vince Young, Michael Huff, Haloti Ngata, Winston Justice and Jay Cutler on the board as the most likely possible picks.  The Raiders don't need an OT, so Justice is out.  I think Young has graded out better than Cutler, so Cutler's out.  I think Huff would make the most sense, but let's be honest - Al Davis isn't going to be logical here.  Vince Young has way too much potential, and is the kind of athlete that David loves.  So, even though they just signed Aaron Brooks, and drafted Andrew Walter in the third round last year, I think the Raiders will pick Vince Young with the 7th pick in the first round.

1. reggie bush \nthis is obvious, although texans need a good offensive line, they've been very interested in him throughout the offseason\n2. a.j. hawk\nwell, the saints need defense, but this is pick is a lil too high for them, they should trade down to get a better deal\n3. matt leinart\nobvious again, the titans need a qb, nd since norm chow is already quite familiar with leinart, they will go together like pb nd j\n4. vince young or mario williams\nvince young is a great player, but he really hurt his chances of a great draft when he decided to leave college early. however, mario williams has a better chance of bein drafted, as the jets already have chad pennington\n5. D'Brickashaw Ferguson\nthe packers need him, wat more could i say? :)

Bush...it's easier to get a power running back then an all purpose yards running back like Reggie Bush.  While White had an exceptional game against Texas in the Rose Bowl, picking him first would be foolish.  You have to look at the whole enchilada when you pick up a RB.  Can my guy make catches? Do I have the offensive line to help make the holes needed for a PowerBack?  Well, the answer for the Texans is not yet.  Their offenisive line(while much improved) still is not good enough to provide the holes large enough for a straightforward power running game.  They need a RB like Bush who can not only run a finesse game, but catch a quick slant or out.  They need more options then just a power game.  The Jets would be more in line to pick up White w/ the 4th pick.  White's good, but not what the Texans need w/ their first pick.  Vince Young will also go before White as well as Leinart.

My Jets got the 4th pick; we're right behind you. It is possible that the Texans could draft Ferguson, the best lineman in the country. But I've never heard of an offensive lineman taken 1st overall. I wonder who the Jets will take...better not be a lousy pick.

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.

Arizona and not just because of matt lienart. getting pope in the 3rd round and big gabe watson in the 4th was huge. After looking at houstons draft it really was quite good i think they got the #1 DE and the #1 OLB in the draft. that will really help the D.

Jay Cutler or Vince Young.  The Jets desperately need a QB (one that can stay healthy and not get injured in the first game of the season like Chaddy-waddy).  Look for them to take either of these guys.  I'm betting they take Young.
