I'm sure there's another multi-million $ DE available at that spot....Speedy said:Bob Allen, local ABC, just said the Texans are trying to work a 2nd & 4th round pick for Chicago's 1st (#26). He thought they'd go after an o-lineman.

GoBlue said:DeAngelo Williams could easily be the next L. Tomlinson, and avail at #26. Also look for a quality CB (Antonio Cromartie) or WR (Chad Jackson) there. Look for us to get D. Colledge in the 3rd round- he is very athletic and ideal for our offensive line scheme and that's precisely where he should come off the board.
I'm just so sick of everyone thinking highlight reels of Bush (or VY for that matter) equate at all with NFL productivity. There are finally smart football guys making decisions in our front office and we need to give them the benefit of the doubt (unless we all want to fire Kubiak before the season starts). Remember all the college football highlights for Ryan Leaf, Danny Wurffel, or even Major Freaking Applewhite for that matter? College football is one thing- being successful in the pros in altogether different. I trust Kubiak knows the difference. I for one am looking to move into the Blue section- anyone still looking to sell......?
TexanSam said:I like this deal. Yeah, last time we traded up to move in the 1st round it didn't work out. Second time's the charm. But I would definately trade the 2nd and 4th for a 1st. Ashton Youbouty (CB) would be a nice pick. As would Lawrence Maroney but I don't think we'll be going running back. Bobby Carpenter would be awesome. Adding Carpenter to Williams would immediately upgrade our defense. Hot damn...I'm excited.
GoBlue said:Studying film means looking at all of their plays including one in which there weren't any sacks or TD's scored. Watching Bush dive into the endzone is much more excitiing than watching Mario WIlliams sack that sorry Maryland QB again. Obviously the combine numbers were huge for Williams.
Finally, I hope that is the last time anyone brings up marketability.
WINNING IS MARKETABLE. LOSING IS NOT. period.
Apperently not to go Blue. He wants that sack record to stand the test of time.Ag97 said:Now that we passed on Reggie Bush we need O-linemen to protect David Carr!!!
{LSU grad}.... DD & Addai in same backfield!.... oh my, i'm getting goosebumps!!MikeMc said:Apparently they feel Maroney will be there at that spot. Even Addai could be there.....
That's the ONLY thing I see them moving up for. They get a true zone blocking running back and deny a division rival the oportunity to take him.jjackknife said:{LSU grad}.... DD & Addai in same backfield!.... oh my, i'm getting goosebumps!!
dalemurphy said:I'll only criticize the deal if it's done before the draft. If there is a guy they are targeting then they need to wait and see if he's there before making the deal. By the way, as much as I like our middle round picks, I'd give up our 2nd and one of the 3rds in order to get Deangelo Williams- he's going to be good!
dat_boy_yec said:I think Joseph or Cromartie are better than Youboty, maybe even Allen. I think they might target Addai or Maroney or wait til the third and pick up Maurice Drew. Another burner that could compliment DD.
