Really, if they were not going to take the biggest impact player in the draft they should have traded down and gotten as many picks as they could out of the deal. Theya re in a rebuilding mode and it makes no sense to take a DE is such a position when their offense was really the unit that sucked the most last year.

Exactly what I was thinking, I mean there is alot you can do with the 1st pick in the NFL draft & they screwed it up BIG TIME. :lmao2:

I'm sorry but its a sweet and sour moment :lmao:

Did they look? Surely someone out there would want to trade up for a talent like Bush. Someone who just needed a top notch RB to put them over the top like the Cowboys were when we drafted Dorsett. We traded up to the #2 spot and nailed a HoF RB; you would have to think that someone would be in that position now...Maybe the Colts since they just lost Edge.

There GM said yesterday that they haven't received 1 offer to move up.

They could of worked out a deal with Williams in principle and continued to shop the pick.

Though it might not be the politically correct way to find a willing partner, I'd be willing to bet that a 12 gauge will make a willing partner out of just about anyone.

If the Skins were in the NBA they wouldnt have had a first to pass on Jordan they woulda have took Tom Sluby in round 2!

If they trade with the Colts how are they supposed to get Williams or any Wimbley or Lawson for that matter. If they trade with the colts, they then have the what???.......29th pick.

The only people they could have traded with is probably someone else in the top 5.....so New Orleans, Tennessee, the Jets and the Pack.

Any lower than that and they are not gauranteed to get Williams.......heck some say that New Orleans was looking at Williams pretty hard. Not only that but all of those teams have just as many holes as Houston which means none of them are really that hard to give anything up.

They did what they could.

J-DOG · Apr 28, 2006

I will never feel sorry for the Texan fan.
They were a bunch of classless morons when they won against us the last time we played in the reg. season.
They deserve what they get.

takes two to tango...nobody was willing to give them fair market value for the pick

and if they had settled on Williams as their guy, they couldnt have traded with anyone but New Orleans and even then would have had to know who the Saints were going to take before doing so

Don't feel bad for them. They are a bunch of delusional *******s who will immediately HATE you if they hear you like Dallas.

They cannot be reasoned with. I quite enjoyed their public meltdown on 610am today in Houston.

It is a riot that it was reported that they had NO offers to trade from other teams and as soon as they sign Williams, all these teams come to NO seeking trades...

That's not actually the truth. The Texans' offense was bad, but not as bad as their defense. They had the second worse defense in the league. Their rushing game was like 15th in the league.

Plus, they switching to a 4-3 this year. It is much harder to find a dominate 4-3 DE than it is to find a great RB. Kubiak is from Denver, they always seem to find RBs later in the draft that do great. Plus, Davis isn't too shabby.

This pick isn't exciting and if I were a Texans fan I would be disappointed, but I don't think it was a bad pick.

SuspectCorner · Apr 29, 2006

if they can't find a trade buddy they oughta be lookin' hard at d'brickashaw ferguson. don't believe me?

ask the beleaguered david carr.

Well that's what happen when you post on acid.

Zaxor · Apr 29, 2006

New Orleans were most likely gonna take Williams at 2...so how the heck were they gonna trade down and still get Williams...it wasn't gonna happen

Good Move by the Texans
