Whew! Texans finally did something right! Man...they finally did something good for the team! For a while there I thought they were going to win the damn game and lose the #1 pick!
But...oh wait...these are the Texans...what was I thinking!

I was having a very hard time with this game. I wanted them to win. I think the #1 or #2 pick will be very valuable when it comes to trading, so I didn't really want them to lose. Kris Brown is turning into Ian Howfield.

yeah we need to trade down Reggie Bush is unneeded on the Texans, but can be in high demand on a lot of other teams.
who actually has 2 first round picks that we want though?
Jets maybe? i'm unsure.
we should trade for an O-Linemen and a 1st and 2nd rounder.

The Texans almost screwed themselves and won this game. Bob McNair should have told Capers that under no circumstances should they win this game. If they would have Capers should have been fired right there on the field.
As for you guys who think the Texans should trade down or not take Reggie Bush, no way should they do that. IMO Bush is going to be a perrenial all-pro back. Think if the Rams wouldn't have taken Eric Dickerson, the Cowboys had not taken Tony Dorsett, the Lions had not taken Barry Sanders, the Oilers had not taken Earl Campbell, the Chargers had not taken LaDanian Tomlinson, etc.
Bush is going to be that caliber of running back/utility player as those guys and you've got to take him without any hesitation. Think of the excitement it would bring the Texans and the city of Houston going into next year that desparately needs a big boost after this year. Perhaps they could trade Domanick Davis for a quality offensive lineman since he'll be expendable when Bush comes on board.
But, what do I really care, I'm a Cowboys fan, lol!

The Cowboys and Niners lead the NFL and are tied each having five Super Bowl wins.
LS1 KLR, why no love for the Cowboys? They're from Texas and have done the state proud with the five Super Bowl wins. I just wish Houston would step it up!
Hopefully Texas will bring home the National Championship Wednesday night!
Hook'em!

Matt were you raised in Houston? The majority of us raised in Houston were bred to hate Dallas. Mostly because they have such a huge bandwagon fan club across the country. I honestly can't stand the cowboys, no matter how good or bad they are playing. In fact, my favorite NFL team is whoever the cowboys are playing that week.

We definately need to see what we could trade Reggie Bush for. If we could get a couple of first round picks and a couple of second rounds picks it might be worth giving him up.

From everything I've heard the Texans have already said that if they get the #1 pick in the draft it would be a done deal that they would take Bush, so all of this speculation about trading down, taking someone else, etc. is moot.

The Texans darn well better take Reggie Bush. He is going to be an awesome NFL back and will generate a lot of fan interest that was lost this year. You can not pass up talent like that. Also, the Texans running back, Dominick Davis, is only an average back who has missed games each year due to injury. Also, the Texans do not have a real good track record in the personnel dept. They would get some extra picks and probably screw that up too.

Any back that can "miss games" and rush for over 1k and receive for over 3-500+ each yr. is non-expendable; Domanick Davis is a proven back, Reggie Bush hasn't stepped foot in the NFL. Sure i agree his potential is very high, nobody ever rushed better than Ron Dayne in the history of the NCAA and look at him now, that kind of thing happens when you draft at a position you already have filled. In Ron's case Tiki Barber, in our case Domanick.
Reggie has the potential to be great, Domanick is already good, and young to boot.
Best move the Texans could have made will be made Monday hopefully, getting Capers out of office.

There is no way the Texans can pass on Bush. They need help in other areas, but we will have a high second round pick and 2 high 3rd round picks. That is where you pick up O-linemen or a tight end.
Plus then we can say the Texans have Bush and the Rockets got Head.
