he isnt worth a huge pay increase but he should be able to keep his job through the next 3 seasons at least

So you think only one person is trying to tackle PT or Bell vice Bush? The same 3 people you claim trying to tackle Bush when they see BELL coming at them the other two turn to one of them and say " you get him we will just not move and watch"... really?

Oh, I didn't catch that either.

I say he must restructure, and I think he will, or we say goodbye.


Since Reggie's a West Coast guy, anyone think we can work a win-win trade with someone like San Diego?

Re: 2010 - Keep or Cut Reggie Bush.
 
I do not think Bush would ever agree to restructure his contract, unless it meant more money for him. I also do not think the Saints would cut him. If the Saints get it in their minds that they want to move him, he does have some trade value. Remember, he is a very nice threat. There are specific reasons he is not getting the touches he did in the past. The Saints do have two reliable guys running the ball, the TE position is finally a true weapon, and all four WR's make plays. There are only so many balls to go around. Is Bush worth the money, the jury is still out on that. He most definitely was worth the money when he was asked to do more...

Euphoria makes several very valid points. In a previous thread I mentioned that those 10 players are almost half of our 22 of our starters. If we only resign 50-70% then we could be looking at a substantially different team, although I don't let the front office see that happening .Also, I'm from the old school...if it aint broke don't fix it. Sean Payton has done a very good job of utilizing Reggie so far this year. It is still early in the season and we could still see a lot of more packages involving Reggie. I like the chemistry when he's on the field. But, dang he is expensive. On the poll I voted to wait until the season is over...There are some exciting times ahead for our team. :dance: :cheers:

It seems though we have a good relationship with New England... trade him to there for Maroney. I'd love to see how they utilize him up there and I've always had a thing for Maroney since Minnesota. If we keep him, that's fine too... I have no problem with it just as long as it's not at a ridiculous amount.

No, if he comes out west he'll be going to the to the LA Rams or the LA Jaguars. That way he won't have much to travel from the games/practice to Dancing with the Stars. lol.

Thanks!

I do agree Payton is doing a good job Utilizing him this year by letting him warm the bench more since his brain farts! He's got less and less playing time. Although I do forsee him getting more playing time after Miami since he didn't mess anything up for a change. Maybe that game got his act together.

Chemistry is on point. You see the guys rally around Bush when he screws up and go over to him when he does good and really mentoring him. Obviously he isn't the team leader.

I am with you if its not broke don't fix it but reality of todays NFL and the cap its obviously players move and based on that reality and whats ahead down the road it doesn't look good.

G Jahri Evans (RFA)

LT Jermon Bushrod (RFA)
RB Mike Bell (RFA)
LB Scott Fujita
SS Roman Harper
WR Lance Moore
FS Darren Sharper
LT Jammal Brown

Sorry Bush has to take a pay cut or he's gone. These guys have contributed more to Saints wins than Bush.


IMO ...I think either Jammal Brown or bushrod will be gone as good as bushrod has done he will want to start and maybe deserves to if he continues to play at high level
