And he's already 32, so even if O'Brien would work his QB magic on Schaub and get him back to a Pro Bowl level, it would only last a few more years. Passing up a QB like Bridgewater would be a huge mistake, even if it meant getting a player like Clowney or Dennard. The QB position is the most important, and Bridgewater would immediately fill that hole; plus, being only 21, they would have a franchise QB longterm.
If McNair wants more high draft picks to take impact defensive players, he needs to trade Schaub away.

I would tend to agree. But Houston still has several good players in their prime. With a few tweaks they can be right back where they were. To me they're a win now type of team and that's why I think about keeping Schaub, coaching him up and add a few pieces. He's still in his early 30's so age would not be a factor. But as you said, real tough to pass on Bridgewater.
