i know people are saying he broke out last week with 4 TD's but did anyone see from where he scored from. Inside the 5 yard line if I'm correct. to me hes more of a reciever than a running back. when you cannot run it between the tackles and ALWAYS have to bounce it outside people are gonna tackle you easily in the NFL. he played a very bad 49ers defense to start anything. maybe this week when he faces Dallas and puts up another game like last week against a tough defense then I'll start giving him his credit. hes a very good fantasy sport player though.

Yes, Reggie Bush was the most overrate dplayer in last years draft. All the experts were killing the texans for drafting Defense but hey, they suck at all aspects of the game and Reggie Bush didn't do much of anything the entire season before that last game. He is defintely not a NFL quality running back. He is scared of contact and is constantly jumping and twinkletoeing around when you just gotta bury your shoulders into the guy. And I'm not talking about a damned cornerback either. He is best suited as wide receiver. He is a skinnier Larry Centers

I will correct you, he scored from 1, 8, 5, and 10 yards out. Do LT's TDs not count because he scores from inside the 5 a lot? Reggie also had a 73 yard reception and he is currently ranked 2nd in the NFL with 73 receptions. That is more catches than Marvin Harrison, TO, Chad Johnson, or Torry Holt for those of you keeping track.
He went #2 and has been better than Mario Williams who went #1, seems like that would make Williams more overrated.
He is not all-world yet, but there was just as much hype about Vince Young being all world at this time and Bush has been every bit as electrifying and he touches the ball way less.

no i do not believe that he is. sure, he hasnt produced much out of last weeks explosion, and while this might sound a little cliche, he creates plays for others. opposing defenses have to respect his big play capability which the saints coaching staff takes advantage of opening up things for others. and especially after the aforementioned explosion last week, defenses will have to respect this big play capability even more so. he might be overrated, but the only reason that would be would be because everybody expected him to the fricken mvp in his rookie season with 5 return tds, 20+ rushing tds, upwards of 8 recieving tds and maybe, if he was lucky, a tomlinson-esque td pass.

Yes he is the most overrated player from the draft. I said this when he came out because the NFL is not the Pac 10 when it comes to defense and they will wrap him up and take him to the ground. He's not bigger than the linebackers and lineman he goes against so he can't be very successful as a runner because the great tacklers of the NFL take away his moves. If the Saints want him to be successful, you're right, stick him at receiver.

No way. Houston once again you BLEW IT. This guy is the real deal and hopefully he can have a long "injury free" career. Congrats N.O for landing him just hope they can keep him for the long haul and bring a Super bowl trophy to that city who desperately need it right about now. This guy does it all. Run, catch, return, block and scores. What more could you ask form a rookie.

No way i think Bush is everything he was expected to be, after all he is just a rookie and he is doing temendous, just last week he had 4 TD, and Bush is only going to get better

i'd say this crew is a 7 or 8. you've some good, even tremendous, hitters, yet pitching can be a difficulty. wealthy Harden is harm vendors, and your in common words closer, Mo Rivera has been suffering this 12 months.

No he needs some time. He has a Great back running in front of him. If he was the starting back he would have had alot better year.

Yes, not only what you said, but he also tries doing cutbacks too much. That doesn't work in the NFL. Also he's not an impact player. He'll be better in a couple years though.

No, the most overrated was John McCargo - he went to Buffalo in the first round and did absolutely nothing, and now he's on injured reserve.
Although long-term I think Joseph Addai will prove to be a big mistake pick - he's not durable enough.
