No Dodging the Hype as Draft Day Nears http://www.nytimes.com/2006/04/16/sports/football/16spin.html
Yet last Monday, the Texans played host to North Carolina State defensive end Mario Williams. Bob McNair, the team's owner, told The Houston Chronicle that Williams could have as much impact on defense as Bush would on offense; Casserly said, "He's worthy of the first pick in the draft." 4/16/2006 8:40:49 AM |

"worthy of" and "might go" are two very different things.
It'll never happen. 4/16/2006 9:02:59 AM |

Forgive my stupidity considering I've been in Japan for a year, but is Mario really THAT good? 4/16/2006 9:49:23 AM |

Yes. mario will be one of the more dominant DE's in the NFL next year as a rookie. He will be a phenom. He's, quite simply, a beast. 4/16/2006 10:04:37 AM |

It's interesting that Mario will probably be playing on the same team as Drew Brees. 4/16/2006 4:32:26 PM |

I hope mario is the beast they say he will be in the NFL but I just don't see him being a Peppers. Peppers seems to have more passion and drive than Mario. Mario definately has the tools. We'll see in 5 years I guess.... 4/16/2006 4:37:47 PM |
