I already have Culpepper and cadillac as keepers. And we get 1 point per reception. And the first round is technically the third round. And the experts are saying that they both deserve to go in the second round or early third round. The only thing is that Taylor has no competition, Bush has Deuce. And my draft is this sunday

Both are unproven players and probably going a little higher than they should minus the hype, but go with Chester there. He will be a big part of the vastly improved Minnesota offensive line(remember they stole All-Pro Hutchinson from Seattles O-line...the same one that helped Alexander go for the MVP last year). Chester also caught 41 passes in a backup/3rd down role last year in Baltimore. Bush will catch a bunch of passes too, but nobody knows how the split is gonna work out with Deuce, who is only 2 years removed from a 1,600 yard season. Taylor wont get 20 carries a game either, but he'll get more opportunities and has proven himself as a pass catcher out of the backfield and has averaged 4.2 YPC in his career.

That's a no-brainer. Bush. He will be an integral part of that offense wether on the ground or through the air. And you are in a keeper league. If Reggie Bush turns out to be what everyone things (shades of Marshall Faulk) you have a guy you can freeze for a couple years.
As a side note, I don't expect McAllister to be wearing a Saints jersey at the start of next season.

PPR wouldn't factor into my decision/ Taylor is safer, because he starts the season as #1 back.
But Bush has the bigger upside. If you can make it thru the first few weeks, I think Bush will pay off huge. I'd have to go with Bush.

Week one I would go with Taylor. Wait and see how much NO uses bush befor you drop him in. He is still a rookie in a bigger stronger faster league. One good play in preseason is not enough to fool people in the know. wait for it. The season is 17 weeks long.

I will take Taylor for now. He should get more touches than Bush.
I guess we will find out how Deuce and Reggie will split carries in time to come.

right away, I thought bush is the safer choice because he was involved in the passing game in USC. but then i remembered that brad childress, the same guy that helped make brian westbrook known for recieving, so not only is chester taylos better than bush in no ppr, but he's better than him in ppr leagues, too.
