Bronco Billy Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 (edited) Who'da thunk it? agreed, and i would expect to see turner go for about a second rounder and schaub go for about a third. Looks like HOU thinks more of Schaub than either of us, Az... Edited March 21, 2007 by Bronco Billy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azazello1313 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 my gut-level prediction: the guy is going to STINK to high heaven. carr will be starting again by midseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Swerski Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Good for them. I don't think that Carr is going to get much better and I think that they paid a fair price for Schaub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikesVikes Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Potential can get you a good contract when you're a quarterback. link I'm not comparing the two players, but Carson was given the reigns after the team dumped Warren Moon. Teams have learned how to handle free agency since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaP'N GRuNGe Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Looks like Petrino thinks more of Vick than many on this forum. At least until the draft when he packages that newly acquired second rounder to move up to get Quinn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackass Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 i remember chris mortenson saying emphatically that "Schaub won't be traded" about 50 times this offseason. at the time, i really wondered how he could be so sure. Turns out he was wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexgaddis Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Not the best place for Schaub to go IMO...hopefully they shore up the O-line issues and he can show if he is an NFL caliber QB.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azazello1313 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I guess I'm one of the few who think Carr has gotten a bad shake. i'm another. i think he's ultimately probably a better QB than schaub. but they just gave up a high (i assume?) second rounder for the latter so they can probably outright cut the former? with personnel decisions like this, and mario williams over bush/young....move over matt millen, there's a new moran in town Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhino Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 (edited) (from KFFL) Houston to Acquire Schaub Jay Glazer, of FOXSports.com, reports the Atlanta Falcons and Houston Texans are on the verge of a trade that would send quarterback Matt Schaub to the Texans in exchange for a swapping of first-round draft picks in this year's NFL Draft, a second-round draft pick in this year's draft and a second-round pick in 2008. Schaub is trying to work out a long-term deal with the Texans. While the deal is not yet finalized, it is expected to be completed Wednesday, March 21.

The Falcons are on the verge of agreeing to trade quarterback Matt Schaub to the Texans in exchange for a swapping of first-rounders this year, a second-round pick in this year's draft and a second-round pick in the 2008 draft. The move clearly shows that Michael Vick will remain the starting quarterback in Atlanta, quashing reports and rumors at the end of last year the team wasn't married to him as a starter. It also marks what is likely the end of David Carr's reign in Houston after being selected by former GM Charley Casserly with the club's first-ever draft pick. The deal, which was pretty much agreed to on Monday, has been held up by a few things. Schaub is a restricted free agent and Atlanta, knowing they'd lose him in free agency next year, chose to collect something for him. The 6-5, 237-pound Virginia alum has only started two games in his career, but his size, coupled with his performances in the preseason, has made him a hot prospect inside the NFL. Schaub is now trying to work out a long-term deal with the Texans. While the trade is not yet finalized, it's expected to be completed today.

I'm sure he'll end up somewhere better. As for Williams over Bush/Young - Williams was hardly awful this year; at first blush, he looks like a solid player who isn't on the level of the other two, but let's remember that one year does not a career make.
