Posted April 29, 200618 yr BREAKING NEWS Texans announce signing of Mario Williams The Houston Texans have announced they have reached an agreement with defensive end Mario Williams. Just got it off NFL.com
April 29, 200618 yr Charlie Casserly is the biggest moron ever! If im a poor Texans fan I would be so f-ing pissed right now.
April 29, 200618 yr wow... rbs tend to be less of a bust than de's, but whatever. that #2 pick is going to become a commodity now.
April 29, 200618 yr I can't believe they're passing on Bush. He's the kind of player you build your team around.
April 29, 200618 yr Charlie Casserly is the biggest moron ever! If im a poor Texans fan I would be so f-ing pissed right now. meh most of them apparently wanted vince so their brain power as a whole may be lacking as is.
April 29, 200618 yr so not only are they passing up on bush but they leak it instead of trading the pick to the saints who want bush and then take williams at 2 after getting something in return? is casserly on crack?
April 29, 200618 yr I'm sure Deuce McAlister is happy about all this. He knows what its like to take a veterans job. Has NO said they will take Bush.
April 29, 200618 yr Maybe the media is just blowing it out of proportions and they simply agreed to terms if he was selected? They did say they were working on terms with Bush and Williams, but the Bush terms weren't looking good while Williams' was.
April 29, 200618 yr Will Bush fall to 3rd or 4th??? i say this will go down: NYJ trade both first rounders for NO's #2 and another 1st day pick. imho
April 29, 200618 yr i read somewhere a while ago that new orleans said they would take bush if he somehow fell to them.. i think they will trade down though
April 29, 200618 yr Only if the Dolphins had this years #2 pick. Casserly will be working for ESPN fairly soon. I dont see the Titans passing on Bush if he were available at #3.
April 29, 200618 yr Only if the Dolphins had this years #2 pick. Casserly will be working for ESPN fairly soon. I dont see the Titans passing on Bush if he were available at #3. next to rick spielman... i know this off topic but how the hell does that man get a job as a draft expert? everytime he talks they need to put "He just here for the entertainment, remember he traded a 2nd rounder for AJ Feely and then gave him an insane contract." in the CG.
April 29, 200618 yr BoDog had a really nice prop bet proposing whether or not Bush would be taken 1st overall. Needless to say the odds were quite nice if he didnt go #1.
April 29, 200618 yr I don't get it I keep waiting for them to say just kidding, we are taking Bush Out of curiosity...is this a binding contract considering he isn't actually a member of the team until he is drafted? Even if they do agree does that mean they still have to pick him? This just doesn't make any sense.

Even if they do agree does that mean they still have to pick him? This just doesn't make any sense. As the #1 pick they CAN sign a player. If they sign a player, they are then required to take him for the #1 pick. Since it has been announced they signed Williams, the Saints can now negotiate with anybody else and sign a player if they choose, etc. The Texans were never going to draft Bush. It made no sense for them, not much of an upgrade anywhere. They needed serious help on both lines, and decided Williams was their man. They couldn't trade down because the Saints also were targetting Williams.
