Which Reggie Bush scenario would you like to see happen?

1. Reggie Bush actually has more receiving yards than rushing yards in his NFL career. If you don't believe me, go to NFL.com and look it up.

Because most of his receptions are swing passes at or very near the LOS.

2. Reggie Bush is still super fast and is hard to cover as a receiver.

Yet he never outruns anyone and rarely catches anything downfield. Wake me up when he breaks a long run.

3. Reggie Bush has a similar build to other wide receivers, like Devery Henderson, for instance.

Agreed, but he's never played WR and its not an easy position to learn. Numerous WR's as fast as Reggie used to be, never make it in the NFL, and they've played the position for years.

4. We need a breath of fresh air at the wide receiver position anyway and Reggie is already familiar with the Saints' offensive system and has chemsitry with Brees.

Why do you think we need a breath of fresh air at WR? We're loaded at WR.

Bush does have experience being the dump-off option and receiving easy to catch swing passes but has never played WR. He couldn't beat out Arrington as our 5th WR. When's the last time you saw Reggie dive to catch a pass? Ever?

Reggie is a scat back, and not a very good punt returner. Its all he'll ever be.

I think Devery Henderson would have more success converting to our scat back RB than Bush would converting to a legit WR.
