Wow... it all comes down to contract figures... Williams is solid, but this may come back to haunt the Texans.

I would think that the Saints might try to trade out of this pick. They've backed McAllister through a decent amount of turbulance before, and since other teams aren't trading for the #1 overall selection, the price should be a little easier to stomach. If anything, I could see the Jets jumping up a couple of spots, as they could use a RB with C-Mart winding down. I guess it all depends on how serious they feel their need for a QB is, and if the Saints would even consider trading out of the #2 spot.

the jets would probably give up the 4, 29, 35 plus other considerations for the pick. They may even have to use Vilma as a trade bait.

saints need D'Br F more anyways... this does change the draft, but honestly, th texans have a good RB, a PB return guy and a true #1 WR. he would have made a good #2 WR, but williams helps them more. 3-4 or 4-3, he's a beast in either scheme.

why? bush without an oline or QB is a bit pointless, especially at the price of 3 starters. Saints might not take him either anyways, and the titans are going QB. Vilma will never be trade bait, his cap hit is too high to follow through with that. there cap situation is bad enough already.

I just can't believe anyone but Bush at #1...

This probably screws up Kiper's daggone top 10.

we're talking about a new york professional sports franchise... marketing bush as a jet means millions to these guys. if i were a gambling man, i'd say the jets are extremely interested.

think its a bad move by the texans. he was projected mid first round, or late top ten earlier, then workouts were good. dont think the workouts could move him up to #1 legitimately, but thats the texans decision. i think its a bad move. they needed to help carr out, and that isnt going to help him out. if anyone besides bush it should have been d'brickishaw...

Last time a defensive end was taken #1, it turned out to be a bad move. Then again, i think Mario Williams is way better than Courtney Brown. Still, I think the Saints take Bush, then trade him. They don't need a running back, when Deuce is healthy, he is one of the best.

mort reports the titans really want bush too...
