And I can't remember when he caught a pass thrown farther than 10 yards downfield. A GlassBack occasionally playing in the slot doesn't make him a WR. Its a compeltely different skillset. Most of Reggies receptions are withing 3 to 5 yards of the LOS. That won't work as a wideout.

I think we'd have more success if we moved Henderson to RB than moving Bush to WR, but both are bad ideas.

Probably a 1.2 million dollar catch.

I'll look in on the playoff games, but I'm already waiting for McShay & Kiper to offer their "insight" on the next "guy"...

Saints didn't get much for Jammal Brown, but at least it's a high third (3) round pick...

Not saying he has good or bad hands, but 5 receptions a game on swing passes and dump offs isn't exactly a great measure of saying that he has good or bad hands. With that said, if he lined up as a full time WR, I'd say he'd drop more passes than Devery... not even close honestly.

What do you think Reggie is??? He is a slot WR that we use out of the backfield and a PR. That is it. Listing him as a RB is a crock!

We need Running Back or Defensive Tackle/End in the first round...

so we'll probably take a Right Tackle or Wide Receiver...

Here's the thing, Coach Payton is not a "I gotta have this guy for my system" coach; he builds the system with the guys he has...

That's why the man has won a Superbowl instead of waiting for all the right pieces...

I say we draft a solid rb or lb such as...
Mark Ingram or Casey Matthews if available.
Casey was all over the place in the BCS game, and almost won it for Oregon with that FF, if only cam newton(michael dyer) hadn't made plays late in the 4th.
