More detail to the Bush trade to Miami...

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I look at it as getting 3 players to compensate for him, replaced by Sproles and we know how that was+ Amaya= special teams, and a swap in the 6th= could turn out to be a starter or quality back-up. ...

Yep, we saved a ton of money and if we made the trade a year or two earlier we would gotten a lot more for him. by the time we traded him he was damaged goods and everyone knew we had to pull the trigger with him.

I guess it's good... IDK why ... but I keep remembering a 4th rounder or something .... obviously wrong ... we've done well with 6th rounders of late... and we got a decent DB.

At least they got something for Bush besides just letting him walk, to bad it couldn't have been a performance based type of pick like with Jammal Brown cause Loomis would have really ripped the Dolphins off

2 things happened here:

1) we went in another direction and freed up a lot of cap money
2) Bush worked with Loomis to have him traded to an OUT OF CONFERENCE team.

Think about the reaplacement we got and for the savings? You cannot beat this trade.

Just think, Bush DOES NOT play for Atlanta, Carolina or Tampon Bay!

i wish he DID play for one of those teams. He SUCKS!!!! just stand in front of him and you know he is headed for the sidelines or if you touch him he will go down. why are people scared of reggie bush?!?!?!?
