But VY has the potential of being a GI-normous marketing guy--way beyond AJ. Hopefully, they get some help with that.

Texans_Chick said:I dunno. He's funny and seemed pretty football saavy.
The problem with having someone inexperienced work on contractual issues is that they often are insecure with what they know and don't know, and can slow things up because they don't want to be taken advantage of.
That being said, teams have taken advantage of inexperienced relative agents before.
And sometimes that sort of thing works out OK.
He and his relatives would make more money (endorsements etc) with a quality agent though.
no but baseless speculation is just what it is...none of us know what is going on so it really doesn't matter. All I did was point out one of our own that did the same thing...and from what I understand AJ can still order cheese on his whopper, and it doesn't cringe at the inflated price point.chuckm said:is this something you would endorse as a matter of practice?

Zephyr said:From what I heard, he hired Bus Cook. I also heard that his uncle would be on the management team. I didn't catch the name this morning either.

texansfaninla said:I didn't hear the interview. Did it sound like he threw Carr under the bus? Just asking, not trying to imply anything there. I'm just kind of surprised he would make statements critical of Carr just a few days after declaring for the draft.
Vinny said:I have the same urge when I see you post about Carr and hate on Young.

Vinny said:All great QB's help out their line and help them by sliding in the pocket. Every lineman has their back to the QB and if you don't have a clue where the QB is then the only people that know where he is is the QB and the DEFENSIVE player...not the lineman. Time and time again I have seen Carr move to a spot where it is impossible for the lineman to make up the ground to get between him and the defender.

Hoth-Boy said:I thought the best point was made by the guys just a minute or two ago. They basically said that the team CANNOT go wrong with either pick.
People need to stop teh Jordan/Bowie comparissons and relalize that both guys are among the top prospects in the last decade.
But then again they said the city hadn't been this enrgized in a long time.
Meh!!! I really don;t know who they should pick or even who I want them to pick, but is will be fun around here till the draft.
beerlover said:I just cannot let this comment disappear into forum lore without a strong recommendation of support. Vinny has been saying the same thing for the last two seasons. It has become apparent that David Carr lacks good pocket awareness and makes poor decisions that reflect not only bad on himself but his lineman as well.
To Vince credit he did not want to address this specificly & would only say he needs to move quicker in the pocket and get the ball out faster. It is my personel opinion that our line is not as bad as people seem to think but rather it reflects the poor play calling and exacution of its current signal caller![]()

travfrancis said:"They basically said that the team CANNOT go wrong with either pick."
I strongly disagree.
one of the more interesting responses was when asked if he (Vince) thought USC still had a chance to score (I believe there was around 16 sec. left) Vince responded that he was worried when Reggie got underneath and was running in the open field, but then surprised/relieved me when he ran out of bounds.
Hoth-Boy said:I wouldn't be surprised if Carroll had ingrained in his head that he needed to get out of bounds in that situation. I was more releived then surprised when Bush went out of bounds.
If he hadn't gone OB and tried to score and had failed, and removed all time form the clock what would the media, and this MB, be saying then?
beerlover said:probably the same thing they would have said about Vince if he didn't make it on 4th & 5, but he made it, won the game and the rest is as they say History & to the victor goes all the spoils![]()
