Payton Recaps Third Round

04-30-2011, 08:41 AM

Did Da’Quan Bowers get clearance from you guys?

“It was certainly a medical issue as you really grade the player. He was an exceptional, productive player. I think someone like that who has played as well as he has clearly for a number of teams it was a medical issue. He’s a fantastic player. It’s tough to see him in your own division.”

Earlier on ESPN you said you envisioned Reggie Bush being a Saint?

“Yes, I was asked that same question. Absolutely.’”

Can you discuss the meeting?

“It was just reinforcing the vision I had. Just like I said, he’s someone that we definitely have a vision for as we go forward. He and I had a good visit this morning.”

You’ve made it clear how you feel about him. Did he express to you that he still wants to be a part of this team?

“We had a good visit this morning. We talked about a number of things. More than anything else, all of those players as competitive as they are want to see their role. The point I made with him this morning and I made earlier was certainly there was a vision we have and used for him. There are some different players and different styles.”

Coach really didn't answer the question here. This will be interesting as the offseason goes on.

He said he has a vision for him and I believe that. Reggie has been the most important part of the play book since he arrived. If he restructures I'm sure that Coach Payton would be ecstatic.
