Now I really don't know what to do because I like your avatar an awful lot as well hmmmmm. I actually do think Thomas makes more sense but I can only make that point so much before just shrugging my sholders and saying oh well just agree to disagree I guess.

In all actuality Bell would be the best choice the more I think about it.

I was just joking about the number. But I agree that Thomas makes for a better Ronnie Brown. Maybe they were trying to simulate Pat White with Reggie.

My concern was that Reggie was gaining big runs on our defense.

Reggie has more speed than Brown & Williams so he gets to the corners a little faster,this would be the only Reason I could think of using him to simulate the Wildcat. The coaching staff knows what there doing so who am I to secong guess.

Says who? If that's the case, maybe we've found a position for him.

I was kind of thinking the same thing. The only player we have faster then Bush is Ginn and Pat White is pretty close and both are used in the wildcat.

Re: Saints use RB Bush to simulate Dolphins' Wildcat offense in practice

... people... people.. please!

Scout teams try to match the plays, not the players. That includes the blocking scheme, not just who throws the ball or runs the ball.

That Reggie was getting big runs against the defense in drills means nothing.

The idea is to acclamate the defense to the scheme so they can see it as close as real life as possible... the defense may have been running at full speed, but surely they are not going to hit Reggie or tackle Reggie with the reckless abandon they do in-game... kind of like an Armed Forces FTX: you don't simulate ground warfare between 2 units with live rounds, do you?

'Cause the simple man pays the thrills, the bills and the pills that kill
