Longhorns junior quarterback Vince Young will declare for the NFL draft at a 4 p.m. news conference Sunday, his godmother told The Dallas Morning News.

Young and his mother, Felicia, met with Young's pastor, Samuel H. Smith, in Houston on Sunday before making the decision, Yolande Levine told The Morning News

According to Levine, Young was on his way to Austin to tell Texas coach Mack Brown his decision to go pro.

"After that performance in the Rose Bowl, I think we all kind of knew which way he was going to go," Levine told the newspaper.

Team and league sources told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that the Texans will pass on Young, a Houston native, and select USC running back Reggie Bush with the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft, pending the formality of Bush announcing that he is turning pro.

Almost nothing will change that course, the sources told Mortensen.

The Texans will pick up an $8 million option on quarterback David Carr, who was the expansion team's first draft pick four years ago. Texans owner Bob McNair made the decision after getting extensive evaluations from various sources that strongly endorsed Carr, including a favorable report from Dan Reeves, the former longtime NFL coach hired last month as a consultant.

USC's Matt Leinart, who could have been the first pick a year ago had he turned pro after his junior season, still remains the consensus top quarterback in the NFL draft, even if Young comes out. For Leinart, he is likely to be the choice of the New Orleans Saints at No. 2 with Young projected to the Tennessee Titans at No. 3.

Steve McNair, who has been mentoring Young, including a visit to watch the Rose Bowl, will be lobbying the Titans to select Young with the third pick, Mortensen reported. Of course, McNair has to re-sign with the Titans for that to happen.

Leinart also would be desirable to Tennessee, where his former USC offensive coordinator Norm Chow is now calling plays for the Titans.

This is going to be one interesting scenario now.

People shouldn't be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people.

Young will be in houston if he comes out. Houston would not pass up there native son. seats would be packed. feel sorry for him no offensive line there. That means we could possible trade down twice and still get AJ. heheheee here we go again with that stupid usc debate. think about all the picks you can get. Tenn would go QB and Jets RB. Who knows maybe GB they need OT for alex smith. That would be streaching it. Man we are in such great shape this year to infuse our team with top draft choices for the next two years if we do this right. Damn i forgot about our front office too JCOOL

actually i think it would be a great idea for the Texans to bring in young.... think about it... carr has struggled just like brees did in san diego... but ever since they drafted rivers... everything has just clicked for brees... sometimes all u need is a lil competition.... n not only that but young would pack the stadium immedietly...

shonboy
