man your crazy
no way the Texans take Ferguson over Bush, no way!
the draft is deep at tackle and the Texans will address this NEED in the 2nd rd. end of story.
as far as who has the better NFL career between D'brick and Super Mario we'll see won't we
I like you. You 're well read and up todate on all of this...However....
I got three problems with RB...outside the fact I lost five hundred bucks on him in Vegas...
1. He's very light. He's sculptured well no doubt, but 201 is still 201.
2. I have yet to see him block a LB. I'm not against a light guy, however the guys got to be able to block. Robert Smith, Gayle Sayers, Sweetness, all could block. See Steve Young & Lawerance Phillips.
3. ALL of his big runs are outside the hash. If Texas could figure out a way to bottle him up, how long do you think it will take NFL co-ordinators to bottle him up ?
RB will face a lot of nickel and dimes when he is on the feild. There's a reason ole Pete went with Lendale White in the second half of that game. And untill the 6:18 mark of the fourth quarter, he was right. I was one foot & a VY away from winning my bet. I think RB is a special player no doubt. A once every two generations player. But he's not with out his warts.
It will be interesting to see which way they go. They draft any of the three I'll
be on board with the pick. All three have warts. I believe they'll take Bush simlply for the fact they'll find no one to trade down with. As far as the Mario drum beater, He's not Peppers ok. He's good. He's worth a top ten pick. But he's not Peppers. JMHO's. If the team passes on Brick....there will be no other prospect in this draft that will be able to beat out Pitts in the '06 season. JMHO. If you can live with that , I can too.
