Bush open to restructuring Saints contract after lockout lifted
Reggie Bush remains on point: His preference is not to find a new NFL home in 2011.
"I want to be back with the Saints. I think our No. 1 priority is to stay with the Saints, restructure a deal where both sides are happy," Bush told The Times-Picayune on Friday. "It's just about getting this lockout out of the way so we can do that. NFL.com news: Bush open to restructuring Saints contract after lockout lifted |
Interesting. If he means this and he wants to stay a Saint (no reason to doubt him I guess), then it slightly refutes the point about him wanting grass vs turf article ESPN ran. I also wonder why he wants to stay in NO. He probably will find a team that will pay him more than the Saints. With the money going into Thomas and the upcoming Ingram contract, I think some team will outbid them so to speak. Maybe he thinks the org. has established itself as one of the league's best and he wants to continue being a part of that. Maybe he likes the area. I'm just wondering really. Does anyone know if he spends time in the area? Does he have a NO residence ?

I think if San Diego came calling, he'd go back home. Thats about the only team I'd think he'd leave us for, unless we low-ball him.
You can't help but get a little excited about what "could" be IF (big IF) the 2006 version of Reggie surfaces with Ingram, PT and Ivory in the backfield. WOW!!! |

The good thing is the Saints dont need Bush to be successful.
We have the pieces to win without him. I hope Bush understands this |

While he does look like an Emmit Smith COLLEGE clone, the NFL is a different story. Also, if Emmit didn't run behind one of the best offensive line to ever step foot on a field, he'd just be another very good RB. Emmit also benefitted greatly from staying injury free for so long. That is impossible to project at the NFL level. Personally I think Ingram will be more of a Marshall Faulk type RB in this offense. Thats good enough for me. |
