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.

If forced to choose one I totally agree with PT...

Two totally different type of players.

They are however a perfect PAIR for the same team.

I'll bet there are 25 teams who would take Reggie AND pay him just as much if not more for his services.

I'd bet there are no more than 3 or 4 that would even consider him at 8 million in 2010, 12 million in 2010 and 13 million in 2012.

I don't think anyone pays that much for a scat back and an over-rated punt returner. Well, Oakland maybe, and Washington perhaps.

Absolutely! The people who criticize Reggie for not being an "every down back" just don't understand the way football is played now. That era ended a decade ago. The way our offense is geared, even Walter Payton wouldn't be out there on every play. Sean matches the personnel with the situation. He does it with the backs and he does it with the receivers.

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

Reggie Bush is overpaid.
