the one i've been hearing the most of is sticky Ricky & our 1st rounder to Texans for their pick...so we can get our QB...
As cool as it would be to get Leinart or VY, there is zero chance of this trade occuring. If the Texans come away from this year's draft and don't have either Reggie Bush or Vince Young in tow...one or the other...I swear that the fans in Houston would burn the stadium down. The Texans understand this, because that organization is as fan-centric as any in the NFL. If they don't have a deal in place to trade Carr by draft day, then Reggie Bush will be picked #1. If Houston finds a tasty enough deal out there for Carr, then I think they take VY and be just as happy to move forward with Vince under center and Dom Davis/Wells/Morency at RB as they would with Carr-Bush.
One more thing to consider on Houston's situation... This is a team whose QB and RBs "reeeeeally" aren't its biggest problem...not by a long stretch. The Texans biggest problem is having the single worst O-line in the NFL. Put Carr behind a good O-line and you see him getting sacked less and sticking his throws more, mainly due to the increased confidence one has when you know you aren't about to get clobbered. Put Dom Davis behind a OG/OT duo who move the line forward so Dom doesn't have to make his first two evasive moves behind the line of scrimmage on every play and Dom becomes a much more productive player. What Houston really needs this year, in what's shaping up to be one of the deepest drafts in a lonnnng time for quality O-line beef, is a surplus of draft picks and someone who walks-talks-thinks like Miami's own Hudson Houck. They need an O-line Rainman and a bunch of bricks to build with. If they do this, that franchise could go from cellar to stellar in a hurry.
My two cents...
