Mario Williams for Asante Samuel?
Seems like a trade that could benefit both teams. But who do you think it will benefit more? Philly or Houston?

Just my idea, this is a bad , dumb trade for Houston .
You saw two preseason games and you are panicking? Mario is likely to help Texans defense a lot in front seven this year, he's healthy, good coach, experienced, will play DE or OLB wherever makes sense. Texans and every teams needs good pass rushers and Mario is in top five in the league and maybe better this year. Asante Samuel - The worst tackling CB in the league over last three years. 30 years old so getting up there as a CB.

Well said. Give the youngsters just acquired by trade, FA, and the Draft time to assert themselves. Mario should stay.

No way. I would consider any good deal for Mario, but that is a terrible one. Even the article is written from the perspective "philly will get anyone they need to win." Well i don't like playing stooge in a stupid trade to further philly's superbowl hopes.
Now if they offered Rodgers-Cromartie and the 2nd they got from Arizona I would consider it. But samuel is old and overpaid.

This is dumb.
Smithiak is on the hot seat, and they are going to trade thier only proven pash rusher? HIGHly doubtful. As stated above, 3 quarters of 2 preseason games is not enough to make a judgement for anyone that isn't a blogger or arm chair QB. May work, may end up @ DE before the year is up, but the notion that the current regime that is fighting for their jobs will trade Mario before or during this season is nothing short of ridiculous. But hey, your driving yourself quite a few site hits, so congrats. I've been suckered yet again.

If Ed Wade ran the Texans, he'd trade Mario to Philly for some 4s and 5s (okay, that was too easy).
 Seriously, if Mario can't handle the OLB position in the 3-4 (and remember, kids, I had my doubts) then you move him to 3-4 DE and take what you can get. But, if someone were to offer Rogers-Cromartie, a 2nd in 2012 and as little as a third in 2013, I'd give it serious thought. That sure beats what we would get in compensation if he goes free agent because he's miscast in a 3-4. Plus, the more I am seeing of Reid and Watt, the more I want them on the field.
