Is Bush really the 10th worst draft steel failure?
 

Jesus Christ !

Not even close.

This kid will be a mess before the season starts. He brought a lot of it on himself but I think that he's just made bad decisions. He's not a bad guy. Just dopey.

Please end the lockout.

While I agree with every word of this comment by ESPN, for them to cast Reggie anywhere close to a bust of any sort shows a total lack of knowledge about NFL football and the NFL draft.

I thought they were more insightful than this crap.

With Super Mario:

2006 4th
2007 4th
2008 3rd
2009 2nd
2010 3rd

Vindicated? Saints have 3 post season efforts resulting in a NFC title game and a SB win. I think he meant lubricated.

What is Bush without Payton? What is Payton without Bush? We may soon find out...

What is Bush without Payton?

This we'll soon find out.

Still an offensive genius. Shouldn't miss a beat.

We may soon find out...

NFL Network's Jason La Canfora reports that the Dolphins will pursue Reggie Bush after the Saints release him.

"From what I'm gathering, the Miami Dolphins might actually set the market for Reggie Bush," La Canfora reported on Total Access. La Canfora also mentioned the Eagles and Rams as teams likely to have interest, but he was the most adamant about Miami. The addition of Bush would bode well for rookie Daniel Thomas, who would likely still dominate carries in that scenario. Bush would handle third downs and probably return punts.



Miami seems like a perfect fit for him... at least playing time wise. He's a pretty good blocker and does well catching ball out the backfield. He would be a big boost to their offense one would think.

He's in the perfect environment to be very good. It's likely that if he goes somewhere else the fans could turn on him real soon if he's not productive.

If Miami made the same trade for Bush as they did for Rickey I'd be happy.

Heck, Reggie hasn't shown he's an Iron man yet, much less steel !

But ESPN sucks. Worthless article.

I agree Shack. What the hell? Leave him alone and go after someone else. This is getting ridiculous.

WTF is a draft "steal failure" anyway? I would think it would have to be someone that was drafted at least below the 1st round...no? Reggie was the 2nd player picked overall...hardly a steal in my book.

The best way that I personally would describe the situation would be a slight disappointment although he has provided many, many highlight reel plays.

Say what you will about him, he still has a SB ring on his finger. He was part of a team that did something no other Saint team could even get close to.

To tell you the truth...I don't know how you can even come up with a list of "worst draft steal failures". Sounds kinda stupid to me.

^^This^^ All lower-round draft choices that didn't make it are failures.

Really? This has pretty much become the norm for ESPN... national guys who do little to no research on teams (except the Pats, Steelers, and Cowboys) and then draw conclusions.

Reggie has been a disappointment, but top 10 steal failure (that doesn't sound right) is dumb. He's certainly not a superstar, but an all-around contributor. The thing that worries me about Reggie right now is that his performance in the kicking game has fallen off so dramatically (the guy is a crippling fumble waiting to happen) that I think his value to the team is lower than ever.

If he was picked in the upper 2nd round of the draft he would be considered a great player for his draft status but now he wasn't so we get to read crap like this instead.

we got a super bowl out of him gees man please find somebody else to dry hump espn.
