That logic would imply that JaBustus Russell isn't overpaid either.

Reggie Bush IS over-paid.

Nobody knows if Russell is a bust or not. I'm not sure Tom Brady would be any good with a team as mired in confusion and mismanagement as the raiders. If you want to sign a 1st pick, you have to pay the money. That's just the way it works.

Irrelevant as to whether or not Reggie Bush is currently over-paid.

Again, using your logic no one is over-paid or under-paid. They signed their contract so thats what they're worth?

Reggie Bush is over-paid.

And I'm pretty sure Jamarcus Russell is over-paid too.

You are wrong this time, Danno. When they drafted him and paid him all the money, somebody somewhere must've said that he better deliver a ring. He may not have done it by himself, but the city has never seen a SB winning team that did not include Reggie Bush.

My sentiments exactly. Since we signed Reggie, we've been to the NFC Championship twice and won a Super Bowl. No, you can't give all the credit to Reggie or any other single player for that matter, but he has been an important player who has made some game changing plays (re: Arizona game). He's also a team leader and is the face of the Saints. I'm thrilled that absence of a salary cap has enabled him to be a Saint one more year.

Why do you say that?

Because he's OVER-PAID, that's why.

He's the highest paid RB in the NFL, and he isn't even the best RB on his own team.

Never saw one without Mike Bell either. Where is he?

Reggie Bush is overpaid.

Football is a team sport, no doubt about it. We could have won a super bowl without Bush, but Brees is another story. My feelings are that Bush can be awesome at times and nonexistent at others. The Saints can pay him 20 million a year for all I care, BUT, they had better shore up our defense. That's why so many people have a problem with what he makes. If we had all of our players resigned and filled all of our needs on defense, break the bank for all I give a damn, it's not my money. He plays a part in what we do on offense, but if you stop and think about it, with all the other weapons we have on offense. Do you really think that the Saints offense would disappear if we lost Bush.

Fortunately, we don't have to find out for at least one more season.
