RE: Realistic numbers!

I don't see him being the full-time return man. To implement him in the offense, the coaches are going to want to keep him fresh.

I see Bush catching ATLEAST two passes a game and averaging anywhere from 20-50 total yards receiving.
I predict him carrying the ball no more than 10 times a game and averaging 30-50 total yards rushing.

RE: Realistic numbers!

IMHO, I'm thinking more along the lines of 60-70 yards rushing and receiving.....3 or 4 TD's for the year....and it all depends on how much they let him return punts for his all-purpose yards.

RE: Realistic numbers!

He's the next Thurman Thomas. He is going to be a true all-purpose offensive player. The only thing I think he needs......is a little more bulk. I'll say....avg. 60 yds rushing and 50 yards catching per game.
