Report: Texans acquire QB Schaub from Falcons
Football Betting Lines
03/21/2007 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Houston Texans are reportedly set to acquire quarterback Matt Schaub from the Atlanta Falcons.
According to the Houston Chronicle, two NFL executives confirmed the deal.
Details of the trade apparently still need to be finalized, but the paper said the Texans will give up at least a second-round pick to obtain Schaub. Houston also must sign him to a new contract.
Schaub is a restricted free agent and signing a player of his status to an offer sheet without the Falcons matching would cost that team first- and third-round draft picks.
The 6-5, 237-pound Schaub, who served as Michael Vick's backup the past three seasons, has completed 84 of 161 passes for 1,033 yards with six touchdowns and six interceptions in his career.
Schaub would join quarterbacks David Carr, Sage Rosenfels and Bradlee Van Pelt on the roster.
Carr would likely become a roster casualty if the deal becomes official.

As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country.
