Just remember...Vince Young needs that type of team overhaul to. Regardless of what anyone thinks of Carr really hasn't been supported well the last 4yrs. If we don't want to do serious damage to Young like we did to Carr then those areas need to be addressed.

There is no way to qualify that. Chemistry is a big piece of the puzzle. We have been able to control the Carr variable once, when he was injured, and it yielded 3 wins out of 4 games.

I am not a draft VY guy, but we need to keep our Texans history in perspective.

I like Bush, but I would still prefer a trade down and get D'Brick, along with some extra picks. But a Bush/DD back-field but would be pretty sweet.

I'd be stoked about this move, too. :thumbup

Either way, we are adding quality players to our roster, which is always a good thing. With good coaching, all of these different draft scenarios will result in wins, simply because we're upgrading positions and utilizing them in a successful scheme.

That's true. I think we are a good coach away from really turning this around. I know I sound crazy optomistic, but I know we'll turn this around quick. But it's hard for me to believe that we went from a promising 7-9 to an abismal 2-14. This season to me seemed like a really jacked up nightmare.
 
I'm a proponent of getting Young, but if this is true then it will at least be interesting to see if Carr can develop further.

I think the OL is just an easy target for the media. As another poster noted, they see the sacks and make their conclusion. No doubt the OL needs work, but the run blocking has been decent.

That being said, I don't think Bush is the answer to our woes. I'd much rather trade the pick than take a running back #1. I think our RB corp is more than adequate. Would rather see us bulk up the defense, the OL, and grab a pass-catching TE. Then give Carr some coaching and see what happens.
