Drafting Young to sell tickets is a stupid move.
A year from now, if Young is no good, Texans fans aren't going to give a shit if he's from their state. Winning teams fill stands, not gimmicks. The Texans should draft the guy that's most likely to make their team better. Maybe they'll determine that's Young anyway, but if they are choosing players because of silly shit like that, they're in a world of trouble.
I don't think teams think that way anyway. It's just more bullshit to give the media rhetoric.
