As a Saints fan I am quite pleased... hehe... I think we should take Bush unless there is an offer for 2 #1s and a #2 or a #1 in 2007... just swapping two #1s for what is essentially now the 1st pick in the draft is NOT enough trade value.
Should be interesting. I hope we do pick Bush... I think the excitement would really help the team's deflated fanbase.
Bush IS NOT going to be able to strut his stuff in the pros without a dominant o-line.
Agreed. Which is why if Bush is picked the rest of the picks should go on OL to try to find a starter. And you go OL in the 1st rd next year. Bush is a guy who you gladly build a team around.
He doesn't have to come in rookie year and carry the load... Deuce is a pretty damn good back himself. Let Reggie play the 'change of pace' role in the backfield a few snaps a game and at WR also for the first few seasons while backing up Deuce and trying to build a dominant OL.
Of course I think would rather a high value trade cause the Saints have many holes that need addressing. We've all seen enough of the 'can't miss' prospects who turn into huge busts.
