He's also a hometown boy who has publicly stated that he'd like to play for that morbid franchise. Texans fans should protest the FO's stupidity.
pats-blue said:Is Young as level headed and a "non-showboat" as he seemed in the Rose bowl? It appeared the Longhorns as a team did a lot less "celebrating" than USC after making plays and appeared to approach the game as a day at the office without calling attention to themselves for the most part. I would assume that is a reflection of the coaches, but was wondering what Youngs "attitude" is. I was impressed by his presence back there....oh and yeah he played OK too. I would be even more impressed if he is the anti Marcus?Michael Vick in attitude.
MoLewisrocks said:His sidearm delivery and the fact that he operates primarily out of the shotgun have a lot of pundits thinking he's a multi year project in the NFL. Might end up not even playing the position.
Seymour93 said:Marcus Vick doesn't come anywhere close to Young as a man or as a football player. I wouldn't call him Mr. Studious, but Young has respect for the game and the opponent he faces each week. One of the keys to success was staying loose and not getting involved in the pregame hype, that's why you would see Young & Crew dancing and goofing around on the sidelines every now and then.
This would work well. Not only was Young redshirted at Texas, he REQUESTED a redshirt year, so I doubt he would have a huge problem with redshirting w/the Titans. Young is a carbon copy of McNair and would be a great Titan.Seymour93 said:Which would make Tennessee a perfect fit for him. Let McNair start for the next few years and go out in style, and by then Norm Chow will have VY ready.
If you wanted to trade down for extra picks, what 'trade bait' would you dangle to get someone else to move up to your number one slot? 'We are going to draft Reggie Bush' - sounds like trade bait to me.bobgeorge said:I admit I have a biased opinion where David Carr is concerned, but I think Houston should concentrate on OL help and either trade down or draft Bush and trade D Davis for OL help. Carr will be a lot better and Bush would greatly help them if they have guys who can actually block. Carr has never been able to show Houston what he can do because his OL over the years has basically stunk.

Houston, meanwhile, could restructure Carr's contract and let him prove himself while VY waits in the wings. The problem is that you develop a situation similar to San Diego's current predicament, you have to eventually trade or release one of your expensive projects.
Leinart may pull an Eli though, forcing New Orleans to pick VY. I really hope the NFL won't let another punk hold the draft hostage again because I don't want to see such a great horn struggle with the Saints!
