We trade the No. 1 Overall + 3rd Rounder

for

Vince Young and No. 8 Overall

?

We would be getting raped in that trade....Tenn would have to give us 8 and Young plus more to move up 7 spots. Young is worth no more then a third right now....

VY is a headcase and seriosuly beyond damaged goods. no thanks.

anyway...why trade for a guy that is going to be getting cut? makes no sense at all. bud adams decided to stick with fisher and that puts VY out. everyone knows this and there will be no interest in trading for him because of it.

cam newton is the best option...far better than VY and with far less emotional baggage.

Is any QB on our roster, at this point, better than Vince Young? Of course we don't trade for the dude under any circumstances, but I don't believe that we would have to back the Brinks truck up to pick him up once he is released. A one or two year deal won't kill us either way, and he just might be worth the risk. There's really nothing of value to lose in that scenario (regardless if he turns out to be a real nut job, which I seriously doubt that he is). The right coach and situation could seriously help the dude grow up.

Don't know that I buy Newton either. Right now I'm thinking non-QB with the number one.

On the topic though, headcase is the right word. There's no way I'm giving up anything of any value for a guy like that, and absolutely no way I make a deal involving the #1 pick for him.

There's word the Texans might want him as a backup. So far that's the only buzz I've seen.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      Yep, I always said the best way to use him in the NFL is as a full time CB, and then get 8-12 offensive snaps a game. Half those snaps he's out there as a decoy so the defense doesn't know where the ball is going every time he's on the field, the other have are play calls with him as the first read, and likely trying to get it into his hands quickly to let him make plays with his athleticism.  That also would mean he needs less practice time on offense too, as he's not trying to get his routes/timing down with the QB as he'd be running a bunch of quick hitter routes or screens to get it in his hands. How NFL GM's didn't see this is beyond me (or maybe some did and it's why the Browns traded the pick and it was just the Jags who were dumb enough to think he'd be able to play both ways full time at an elite level.

      Also reading this thread again and seeing that was a clear WoahCam alt, it really makes me wish he was still around to hear his takes on how "his guys" are doing this year. Shedeur can't beat out Gabriel for the #2 job behind old man Flacco, Hunter is struggling on offense and doesn't have a clear role, while T-Mac is proving to be exactly who I said he was and the guy WoahCam was very much down on for a while until he said he was coming around on him, lol

      Yeah, it really seems like they made that move legitimately expecting him to be a two way player which is just crazy. You just can't be a two way player in the modern NFL. The obvious approach with Hunter was to have him focus on being a CB first and basically motivate him by telling him that the better you play on defense and the more comfortable you are on the field there, the more comfortable we're going to be putting more on your plate by carving out a bigger piece for you on offense but likely always limiting that to maybe 10-12 snaps a game at most on offense. Starting him out primarily at WR was just insane. At least they quickly saw that and adjusted but they really blew it with the off-season/preseason approach and it's causing Hunter to play catch up.
