Fox and ESPN are reporting Vince Young is headed to the NFL. <br />It was a good ride while it lasted.

Ya think they'll pony up JT??<br />I think Reggie Bush just dropped a tier or two. Maybe 3rd or 4th.

Yeah, It is time for him to move on. He can do without the Heisman Jinx. ;)

Do you think Houston will draft him?<br /><br />I heard they still plan to draft Reggie, as they already have a big ticket QB (Carr)<br /><br />Not sure what I would do, but Vince would be hard to pass on. He's a huge talent, and from what I've heard a real good kid, too. As is Reggie Bush, of course, as well as Leinert.

Seems like 1st pick in a draft that includes guys like Reggie and Vince should be worth more to a team like Houston...they ought to be able to get several starters plus a few later picks. That's just my opinion.<br /><br />But it is Vince's hometown, could give'em a real box office boost.<br /><br />Don't know if this story went national...an interview with Vince's preacher on the local sports last night...Vince asked him for advice; the preacher told him to stay in school. But Friday night the preacher had a dream in which Vince appeared as a trout struggling to escape from a fisherman's net. The preacher called Vince back in, they prayed about it, and he told Vince to go ahead & "follow his dream."

reggie is all but a lock for #1. young could be the 2nd or 3rd QB drafted. plenty of runners that try to be QBs that just don't make it in the NFL. Charlie Ward comes to mind.... great move heading to the NBA.

Im not sure how it works into things, but I heard on the radio that David Carr is due an $8 million roster bonus this spring. That sort of clouds the water.<br /><br />I am sort of rooting for Young to end up with the Titans. He could sit behind McNair and learn for a year. He and McNair have very similar styles of play, so Tennessee wouldnt miss a beat on the rebuild.
