TEXANS CUT DAVE AND DOMANICK

A year ago, the Houston Texans passed on quarterback Vince Young and running back Reggie Bush with the first overall pick in the draft because quarterback David Carr and running back Domanick Davis were the franchise's choices at those positions for 2006 and, presumably, beyond.

A year later, none of the four players in question are under contract with the Texans.

Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that the Texans have cut Carr and Davis (who is now known as Domanick Williams).

It is, in our view, a stunning turn of events. Carr was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2002 draft, and Williams/Davis was regarded not long ago as a rising star after rushing for more than 1,000 in each of his first two NFL seasons.

Williams/Davis missed all of the 2006 season due to a knee injury, and Carr was generally ineffective in 2006, despite leading the league for a while in passer rating.

Carr's fate was sealed when the team traded for quarterback Matt Schaub and named him the starter. But the Texans were expected to at least trade him for a low-round draft pick.

The team paid an $8 million option bonus not long after the 2005 season ended to secure the rights to Carr for three more seasons. The decision to keep Carr took them out of the running for Young, a Houston native who won the NFL offensive rookie of the year award and who became the first rookie quarterback to play in a Pro Bowl.

Whoever makes this Choices for the Texans is the reason they will never succeed!

If Dom is healthy, he will be playing somewhere and signed soon.

This is by far one of the worst moves I have seen in my lifetime. It is almost as bad as the Jets passing on Dan Marino for some no name QB. By moves I mean passing over Bush and Young last year and now simply releasing these two. Are you kidding me!

I wander if Matt Millon is running the Texans too.........LOL

Maybe by some powerball luck they will look smart. Can't see that happening as you would think you would try to get anything for two players instead of just turning them into free agents. The Texans need help big time.
