Default Scenarios for Top 2 Picks in 2006 NFL Draft

Taking a look ahead it looks like there are 5 NFL teams who are in the hunt for the Top 2 picks in next year's Draft.

Houston (1-12)
San Fran (2-11)
Green Bay (3-10)
Jets (3-10)
Saints (3-10)

The consensus top 2 prospects for the draft seem to be Bush and Leinhart, so what do you think each of these teams would/should do if they end up with the #1 or #2 pick. I'm thinking...

Houston
#1 take Bush
#2 take Leinhart if Bush is gone

San Fran
#1 take Bush (probably the easiest decision of all the teams)
#2 try and trade it

Green Bay
#1 take Bush
#2 very interesting, Favre is old and Rodgers looks sucktastic, but tough to use two #1s in a row on a QB, probably would trade it, but I think taking Leinhart would be the right move.

Jets
#1 Good lord, they're brutal at QB and RB I say Leinhart
#2 better slot for them, if Bush is gone Leinhart is an easier pick

Saints
#1 Probably Bush but its close
#2 if Bush is gone Leinhart is an easy pick

This all comes down to if SF has the will to lose to the Texans. It will be pretty hard, the Texans are trying really hard to lose all of their games.

I think that if the Texans don't get Bush, they'll try and trade the #2. Carr can still be an effective QB, and I know they are very high on an offensive lineman whose name is escaping me. And O-line is clearly where they need improvement.

Do you even watch football?? No way Houston takes Leinhart unless they don't keep Carr and pay him his $8 million roster bonus, which they already said they would.

You say Rogers looks sucktastic but he hasn't even though he has only thrown one pass in his career. No way they take Leinart.

And nobody is close to Bush. The Jets and Saints will take Bush with the 1st pick if they have it. If for some reason they weren't going to take Bush, they would trade the pick away for a boatload from somebody.

Chris Mortenson reported the Packers would seriously consider taking Leinart if they end up with the #2 pick.

I can't see any team passing on Bush with the #1 pick.

No way the Jets wind up with #1. If they do I think they take Bush.

If the Jets do wind up with #2 I doubt they take Leinhart. The will trade this pick to a QB starving team and look to take a RB lower in the 1st (like Williams from Memphis) and then maybe grab another 1st rounder or a 2nd rounder and grab an OL maybe a DT or a WR.

Everything I've read in the NY papers has me believing the Jets won't draft a QB until they know if Pennington will be able to come back or not (so not till the 2007 draft). In the mean time they will fill the void with an older veteran QB (ala Collins or Fiedler).

What does Houston do with Domanick Davis if they grab Bush?

What do the Packers do with Aaron Rodgers if they take Leinart?

The Saints could use both those players. Who knows how well Deuce can come back from his torn knee ligaments.

Houston would be retarded to take Bush. They have a decent running back, trade down and grab as many quality guys for their oline as possible.
