I can't even tell who it is. I am guessing it is Mario Williams?thunderkyss said:Not me Baby, Mine already has the best looking Texan in it.

Boo Casserly but please don't boo Mario because he didn't cause this. (I will add, show some class peoples).
Any quality DE is going to have a impact on your football team. We were going to be short on DE, but now we are gonna be OK.
Is Peek gonna moved to LB??--Not for CC to say, ask the coaching staff, we have discussed this internally.

Toan said:I didn't say that, I meant that everyone assume we were gonna get Bush. Vince fans already lost hope that he is coming here.
I would have rather the Texans draft Vince or at least D'Brick. A real left tackle would be nice. I guess the real question is, will Mario be any better than Shawn Merriman? If he's not, then the Texan's really screwed up!!Toan said:I didn't say that, I meant that everyone assume we were gonna get Bush. Vince fans already lost hope that he is coming here.
speak for yourself...I didn't want Bush. Before Young declared, I was hoping for DaBrickashaw Ferguson. After Young declared, I didn't want anyone else. As time went on, I accepted the fact that we weren't going to get Young, but I still didn't want Bush. I was willing to accept Bush if we got him, just as I was willing to accept whoever we got, but I never thought he was a need for us. Since we weren't going to get Young, I was hoping for a trade down for Brick. As I got to know more about Mario, I decided that I would rather have him than Bush if it came down to it, and it did. Mario was not my 1st choice or even my 2nd, but he was much higher on my list than Bush.Toan said:We wanted Bush, not Vince.

Agreed. Williams is already very good, and they think with more coaching he could be sick.
Wait until Williams gets NFL coaching and learns how to really use those long arms. At NC State the coaches didn't spend a lot of time teaching hand techniques and such. "I feel like the sky's the limit," Williams said.
Critics point to the fact that 13½ of Williams' 14½ sacks last season came in the Wolfpack's final seven games and wonder about his consistency. Williams offered an interesting explanation for that. It took him four games to figure out how to better deal with cut blocks. Instead of wasting time pushing down with both hands on blockers' shoulder pads and stepping around the block the way linemen are taught, Williams learned how to handle blockers with one hand or just hurdle them. He had three sacks in NC State's fifth game, against Wake Forest.
A longtime defensive line coach says that on film, Williams appears to be playing a bit "cautious." Williams concurred with the observation. At NC State, the ends' first responsibility was outside containment (bootlegs, reverses) and at one point they weren't even allowed to take an inside rush. That discipline might give the impression that Williams was taking plays off. "I don't feel like my play changed from the beginning of the season to the end of the season," he said. "Maybe my numbers were different, but I ran the same way."
In the short term, Williams wouldn't impact Houston's defense the way Bush would the Texans' offense. They'd still have a lot of holes on defense. The offense is on its way, ready to set it off. Still, the end is the way to go.
Williams says he'd like to go No. 1 overall, but he's more concerned about where his team picks in the future.
"I want to go to a team that's going to best utilize my abilities, so I can help them win a championship," he said, "and maybe next year we can be at the 32nd pick."
