Wow, this is unexpected, but Williams' stock is sky high right now. Plus, you know that Houston had to be trying to reach an agreement with Bush but he proved cost-prohibitive to a team with so many holes.

If Williams is as good as his pre-draft hype, a la the comparisons to Reggie White, I can see the Texans making this move.

People have questions about Bush. It's been said he doesn't have the strength to carry the ball 20 times at the next level, and the Texans already have a pretty good running back in Davis.

I'm not as shocked as most people. Bush isn't a sure thing at the pro level.

I have to agree with you on that. The situation with McNair is to unstable at this point. I think QB is the choice for them as well.

Right. I forgot about him, Mr. GoChiefs.

Thanks.

I think the Jets will do everything in their power to get Bush. The New York teams will always look to make a big splash, and Bush fills a need. I'd be very surprised if they don't trade up to #2 to get Bush. The Saints can fall back to 4 and take Brick.

Even if the Texans don't want Bush and don't want to pay for him, they have to either trade down, or draft him and then trade him to a team that is willing to pay through the nose for him (a la the Giants-Chargers trade). Williams is benefitting from the Bush backlash, he's good, but he's not going to be Reggie White.

Don't rule out Vern Davis though. Brees and Gates were a pretty good combo, they might look for a monster for Brees to throw to in NO as well....

I was listening to a Jets guy last night say that he couldn't see the Jets taking a QB. They don't like Young for what they plan to do on offense and they apparently feel that Leinert is too much like Pennington.

The Jets are now on the Bush train, bank on it.

Bush would fit in with the Jets, all that NY hype and endorsement money will help. But I still think they are crazy if they don't take a QB. Pennington has way to many ? marks to be reliable.

I could buy that, but with the seller's market that New Orleans has, they can auction off Bush to whomever wants to move up and get him. I am no draft guru, but I can't imagine he won't go in the #2 spot, whatever team that ends up being.

The Saints are sitting good right now. They could come out of this draft with extra picks this year and next and still get the guy they want.

Wish the Chiefs were so lucky to be in this situation.

the texans are idiots.

You may be right...I think they are the only team with 2 #1 picks(#4 and #29 overall). Maybe they package both to move up and take Bush.

Unexpected buy I kinda like it

Wow, can't wait to watch the draft now...anyone know what time it starts...?

Noon eastern....11 yours.....9 mine
