But, I think they would be upset down the road. Here is what happens if you take Young: You get a possibly fantastic QB that could change the game, but the odds are that a scrambling QB is going to take a lot of development. You also then don't get Reggie Bush. And you give up on your current QB that you spent 5 years developing. So. Draft Reggie, Keep Carr - and you keep 2 starters that will impact a turnaround next year. Only draft Young and he will sit and learn and you are minus 2 starters on offense next year. The Texans were last in running the football and last in throwing it this year. They need to get better now. I am all for Reggie Bush coming to Houston. We already do have a fine back in Dominick Davis. They can split carries and on 3rd down Reggie Bush can line up as a slot or wide receiver and cause all kinds of problems there as well. It's a win-win. But, don't think the fans of Houston aren't going to be pissed about this one. The honeymoon for our baby franchise is over folks. The radio talk shows will be lit up on Monday and not too happy! If you draft Vince Young you make the fans of Houston awfully happy now. But, I think they would be upset down the road.

After the game he said something to the likes of "even with me leaving, this team still has a great shot at winning the title." If I were the Texans, I would be trading down, for a package that could hopefully include multiple picks and players. The Texans' need for Bush does not seem that great. The Jets would seem like a logical choice, picking at 4 and needing a RB in the near future (Curtis Martin can't play forever). Let's not forget that before last night, Matt Leinart was penciled in as a Saint, with V. Young going at best in the 8-12 range. I believe the Saints are playing only in Louisiana next year, but a good way to sell out the Alamodome would have been to have Vince Young at quarterback. Reggie is as good as gone.
