Texans taking Reggie Bush, even if Vince Young is there

I wonder how Bush will do with that oline disaster and a QB who doesn't even have time to hand off the ball most of the time?

[MadMarchHare]

Maybe they think they can stock the oline in FA, ala the Giants a few years ago?

[MDS]

They can now trade Dom Davis for some picks and get some o line help.

[General_Failure]

They could always pick up Runyan. They've had great success with aging tackles.

[Dillen]

Why would they take Young anyway? They picked up Carr's option you know.

[Zanshin]

Pfft.  It's a long time between now and the draft.

[Dillen]

Does anyone actually believe this? I mean its possible for the Texans to get Bush, but as of right now its probably a smokescreen.

[LBIggle]

good for them.

no shtein.

[The BIGSTUD]

If Davis become a pretty good back behind that line then Bush definitely can.

[PhillyPhreak54]

I'm not buying it yet. Although if they did it would be no big shocker, but I think they're going to entertain trade possibilities and wait until they get a HC to lock in to the pick.

I love the NFL draft as an event, but what i can't stand is how every player has serious tragic flaws all of the sudden.  these personnel guys have too much time to dissect every minute detail of a kids life and all they are doing is trying to figure out a reason why not to take them.

by the time the draft rolls around Reggie Bush is going to be undersized, not a full-time player, Vince Young is going to be a great athelete who can't throw, and Matt Leinhart is not going to have enough arm strength

[PhillyPhreak54]

It's already started, Mo.

Peter King had a note in his MMQB today where he pointed out the fact that Bush has only had 1 20+ carry game in college and wonders if that'll affect him.

I agree with people scrutinizing everything characterwise about a player. Because you have to know whether the guy you're fixin' to hand millions of bucks to has his head on right or if he's going to take $3M of his signing bonus and invest in the drug trafficking trade.

But one thing I wish pro-personnel guys did was look at on the field talent. I like how Belichick and Pioli take "football players". They see how a guy does in between the lines and draft him on that most of the time (unless he's a knucklehead). Look no further than guys like Dan Klecko or how he took Watson and Graham in the 1st rounds in different years or even Tom Brady. They have guys like that littered all over their roster.

Don't forget about Deion Branch and Mike Vrabel

rumor on SI.com that the Packers love Lendale White and would take him at #5.

I almost wish the Eagles had a top 3 pick and needed a QB. Vince Young would look good in an Eagles uniform.
