after this game, I don't think Reggie Bush is a lock for the #1 pick in the draft.

I know Young is a pretty big dude, but come on ... if you're on D and you have your arms wrapped around him, pull the guy to the ground.

I saw USC blitz like crazy during that last Texas drive ... #39 had Young locked up twice and couldn't make the play. :down:

Houston gets the #1 pick in the draft ... I think David Carr is a complete bust, and with the wreck that is the Texas offensive line, a scramble machine like Young might do well down there.

The 49ers pull #2 ... what do they do if Reggie Bush is picked #1? They need help at all positions except QB ... but do you let someone like Vince Young go if available?

It's not that USC's defense is bad...they forced a lot of fumbles that they couldn't recover. Plain and simple, they couldn't tackle. They didn't make the big plays they usually play. They should have corner/safety blitzed from both sides...that's the only way they could've put pressure on Vince. Whenever they brought the blitz, it was either up the middle, or from one side...and always picked up by the tail/fullbacks. They also should've put a spy on Vince, who would be responsible for following his ass everywhere. They gave him wayyyyyyy too much space to run. It was more the defensive play calling by Pete Carroll IMO, than the defense itself...aside from the tackling.

The niners aren't even in the top 5 picks, and David Carr is the only player that the texans have.

wait, did N.O get the 2nd pick? :doh:

anyways, in N.O. their last QB was just like Young ... they're not going to do that again. M.L. is off to the big easy.
