Michael Irvin on SC saying it's horrible....."Defense doesn't win championships....being able to outscore the other team is what matters."

 

Somewhere in his pocket I can sniff the drugs....

 

 

BTW, I'm still shocked about all of this. I'm definitely gonna watch this draft for 4 hours or how many hours it is till it ends. :D

Worked well for Indy...

 

Yeah he also said if Bush went to the Texans he would have rushed for 2,000 yards 2 years in a row

 

:rolly

 

Reggie Bush will never run for 2,000 yards in the NFL.. this isnt USC where he is gonna just dance around a bunch of teenagers, he is going to have to run between the tackles and take poundings for 16 games as someones "feature back".. As of right now, I am VERY skeptical that he can do it (Run between the tackles and handle the full load of a starting NFL running back that is)

I have a question.... how good does Mario Williams have to be to justify this pick?

 

Multiple Pro Bowls?

As a Colts fan, I have to say that the Texnas made the right decision.

 

As an observer of football, I have to say the Texans made the wrong decision.

Stupid to pass on Bush.

You have to hope the Houston fans don't take their frustrations out on Mario Williams. It's hard to believe, but the #1 overall pick could be reviled by his own team's fans.

That happens with with every pick involving an east coast team though. Williams will be fine.

This is like passing on Michael Jordan for Sam Bowie...

Not even close

 

A lot of people are hating on this pick for the sole fact they dont even know who Mario Williams is and all they have heard or seen is Reggie Bush

i totally agree....

 

 

but to justify this pick in the eyes of the masses... Mario Williams has to be pretty damn good.

Aj Hawk to the Packers I love that pick. Missed the first pick, Bush is better suited for New Orleans I think.

Man this draft has been weird especially for the Titans. They got Vince Young and LenDale White... :o

Im not too sold on Lendale White, he adds alot of weight and he has a poor workout and isnt motivated.

 

Im surprised Chad Jackson and Jimmy Williams took the drop they did I was hoping that that the packers would take Jimmy but bonehead Thompson trades the pick.

I was saying that in regard to both playing against each other just a few months ago and now on the same team potentially hearing the names "Young hands off to White."

LenDale White said he weighed 239 today... that would be much less than his playing weight at USC

He's also been nursing a hamstring injury that we have no idea when he got it, or why it's taken so long to heal.

Lendale was such a steal. Vince Young and Lendale in the same draft, absolutely incredible.
