I am not dealing with another loving Carr again. Are you loving kidding me with this? How cursed is Houston sports to have to go through with that AGAIN?!

What if Carr 2: Electric Boogaloo ends up being the greatest QB in NFL history? Will it be worth it then?

So we have just under 24 hours as a nation to beg Houston to show mercy on Derek Carr and not take him.

Love that trade/pick for the Vikings.

I'm actually not all that hung up about Carr. It's unfair to compare him to his brother. I mean, Jesus, look at the Mannings.

..by which I mean the obviously superior, multi-SB-winning Eli over his lowly brother.

Considering Seattle somehow finds value in the late rounds and we hosed over Houston I am quite happy with this trade.

Honestly, I think they could have done better. I'll take it, but to only get a 4th is pretty "meh"

Ask me about how my football team's success determines my self worth, and how I wish I lived in New Orleans.
To be fair, I was only referring to the posters ragging on Houston's front office. I'm sure they tried to move up and Seattle took the better offer.

I gotta wonder if the Texans wanted Bridgewater really bad (they should have) if they would have pre-emptively called Seattle saying "hey if anyone tries to snipe this pick, let us have a chance to top their deal"

Because if not they dumb

33 and a 5th would have guaranteed it so I gotta think they aren't that serious about him

Manziel on the possibility of being drafted by the Cowboys: "I don't know if the world could've handled that, honestly."

It would've made Manning and Brady chat look like Bridgewater first round draft coverage.

Clowney's great but come on, would a Chargers fan want to see Ryan Leaf's brother at quarterback? Or the Browns have Brandon Weeden's brother at quarterback? What about the Raiders? Would you like JaMarcus Russell's brother at quarterback?

It's strange. It's horrible. I thought I was done with seeing someone with the last name Carr as a Texans quarterback. This is a terrible nightmare.

Edit: Whatever, you guys will say yes to that question in a heartbeat, and it will be easy for you to do because you'll never have to deal with this situation. gently caress this Earth...Clowney's great and all but Bridgewater was the guy I wanted the most out of anyone and the Texans squandered it. It's difficult to be that happy about today...it was almost the perfect draft.

He has good potential I think. If I was a Texans fan I wouldn't be super disappointed if they took him at the top of the 2nd. Though I would probably want Marquis Lee more.

Its not just the same last name. They're brothers. The bloodline is tainted...cursed...

Nah, Carr the First would have been far better if he hadn't been dumped into such a terrible situation. Same poo poo the Browns did to Tim Couch 3 years prior. :shrug:

Leaf melted down. Weeden was old and crappy out of the gate. Jamarcus was a lazy gently caress up on the sizzurp.

Carr was broken by a crappy expansion team with a poo poo OL.

Hardly anyone in the younger fanbase even remembers Carr.

The only thing anyone is going to care about is that it isn't Schaub, and they'll be too busy drooling over Watt+Clowney to care.
