The NFL draft is about 2 months away and sports sites are abuzz with all sorts mock drafts and analyses. The first 3 teams to pick are as follows: Houston, New Orleans, and Tennessee.
With the recent contract extension for QB David Carr in Houston, I think it is obvious that they will be taking Reggie Bush with their 1st pick. New Orleans will have to choose between QBs Matt Leinart from USC, or Vince Young (see picture on the right) from Texas. Reports say that New Orleans will pick Leinart over Young. I would agree...except for one thing. My take is that since Norm Chow (ex-offensive coordinator at USC) is now with Tennessee, it would make sense for them to try to trade up to pick Leinart. After all, Norm would be extremely familiar with Matt Leinart, having coached him at USC, so why would he take Vince Young at #3 instead?
I say, look out for Tennessee to trade up and watch for the USC alum to reunite with his college offensive coordinator! What do you think?
