Would love to see a comparison of this year's Sproles numbers to Reggie's best season at New Orleans...

Reggie Bush's CAREER STATS:

Games Played: 75 (6 Seasons)
Attempts (Rushing/Passing/Returns): 1175
All Purpose Yards: 6,386
TD's: 40

I'm NOT a Reggie hater --- just pointing out that in a SINGLE season Mr. Sproles has nearly 40% of his ALL-PURPOSE yards, almost 25% of his TD's, and hasn't missed a game (I don't think). At $4M a year -- this guy was a STEAL!!! If he keeps this up ... #43 with be hanging next to #9 in the rafters FOREVER!!!

I just looked quickly --- thought it may be interesting. Bush's best season I'm sure can be debated, but I think it was his rookie year 2006 (which was also the ONLY season he played a full 16 games):

Rushing: 155 for 565 Yards (Avg 3.6)
Passing: 88 for 742 Yards (Avg 8.4)
Returns: 28 for 216 Yards (65 Yards was his long)
ALL-PURPOSE YARDS: 1,523
TD's: 9 (6 Rushing, 2 Passing, 1 Return)

I also believe his rookie contract paid him $3.8M his first year ... A pretty good upgrade for $200K with Sproles!
