Re: Rafael Bush embracing role...

I'm not saying he isn't a good player, but he did have some mental issues during his last stint with the Saints. He, at times, seemed to look for that big hit when one wasn't available and got frustrated because of it, which in turn led to some lapses in concentration and steaming on the sidelines.

It's great that the guy wears his heart on his sleeve, but there's a limit to that - especially if the guy is supposed to set an example for the younger guys.

He is an ok safety, but if things go well with the roster - he shouldn't see many defensive snaps this season.

Re: Rafael Bush embracing role...

I posted an article several years ago that broke down his plays, and stated that he was just an average NFL safety when everyone was high on him.

Many poo-pooed that article, but looking back I think it was spot on.

He's a very good ST player and a "decent" NFL safety. Nothing more. But that ain't all bad in todays NFL.

I'm glad he's back and I think he's a high-quality back-up, but he isn't really a high-quality starter.

Re: Rafael Bush embracing role...

Does anyone think that a player embracing role as a backup should be cut at this point in the season?

No, not me. He is what he is.

I like and see what you're saying, but I'm liking Danno on this on too. Embracing a role as a backup, yet still being pure deadly on ST and whenever else he comes on the field is a bit more than okay with me too. Some bodies just aren't cut out for the three down game.
