No thanks to Bush. If he can't make it on the saints, a team pretty much tailor made for him, he won't make it here.

I never liked Reggie Bush, but his stock went up today.One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

I never liked Bush as a number one back but he is DAMN good as a change of pace, returner and reciever!

Thought he was overrated. Plus, he gets injured easy.

God bless Partial, but he agreed with Snake on this old thread....and Tony that's all he gonna do given his injury history, but he's a good change of pace speed/juke back that can actually catch a pass (we haven't had that since Ahman in his prime and that really helped pick up first downs as a threat catching the ball as an RB).Originally posted by Tony OdayI never liked Bush as a number one back but he is DAMN good as a change of pace, returner and reciever!
As a receiver (he's already had 100 catch seasons) and has great hands. In a West Coast offense we could run various mismatches with Bush and JFinley all over the field by running misdirections, etc. Bush or Finley split out at WR would make the whole offense/run game better as they could make athletic one-on-one plays or demand attention and make Grant more effective with less men in the box.
Bush doesn't have crazy stats in NO cuz he's a rare athletic specimen that demands attention with his explosiveness and makes the other players/QB better as they face 1-on-1's. He's underrated as a decoy, kind of how Randy Moss is in his later years for the Pats (making Wes Welker a star WR).
As far as ST...damn, he singlehandledly wins games at times as a beast returner. Sign Snake up for some Bush. If PackerChatters was right back in the day (2005) when I was there, then TT had a big hard-on for some Bush and almost traded up for him instead of drafting Hawk (sorry, just puked in mouth a bit).
Snake loves some Bush...and with a questionable RB roster, Driver getting older, and Blackmon hurt/Jordy sucking, I'd love him as our returner and to spell those other positions.
Is $6 million or so yearly (Bush is a FA in 2010) that much for a guy that can change a game? I really don't think so. I think he'd excel in our offense (used sparingly given his injury history) as a decoy, change of pace RB, threat at WR, and beast as a PR and KR. Sign the bastard, TT!
I love me some young Bush...Snake's Twitter comments would be LEGENDARY.........if I was ugly or gave a shit about Twitter.Comment

completely agree Snake
Bush would be a great addition; every OC would love to have Bush. He adds a dimension to the game few teams have.TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWERComment

How does a guy with that kind of talent, who can make those kinds of plays, finish with 350 yards rushing and 700 some overall? On a team with a fairly active offensive imagination no less?
If he runs hard, between the tackles, every week maybe he could be an everydown back. But he's never shown that.
If he's going to be a third down back in Green Bay, he'd need to be able to pick up the blitz first and foremost. Otherwise he's just a liability. All the open field skills in the world won't help if he lets Rodgers get creamed. We've already got a third down back that excels at pass blocking and is capable of making plays with the ball.
So unless he commits to doing some of the dirty work, that leaves splitting him out wide and returning kicks, and the occasional gadget play.
While I'm all for adding a RB with playmaking ability, someone will pay Bush more than I'd be willing to offer. By the way, Grant would go straight back to the holdout line if we paid Bush $6 million to be his backup and I wouldn't blame him one bit.#14Comment

Reggie Bush is an electric player but he isn't an every down kind of guy. I would rather we kept Grant and Green than get Bush. Bush just isn't an NFL caliber running back, special teams maybe, situational, sure, replacing Grant OR Green?

And Brandon Jackson has talent as well. The injuries set him back this year, and his opportunities were limited, but he's the most complete back we have running, blocking, and receiving.Originally posted by Merlin
If we stumbled across a CJ Spiller or someone else dynamic in the draft, I'd be OK with taking a shot but we have enough other needs (namely a bunch of our own FA linemen on both sides of the ball that I wouldn't spend a lot on any FA RB.#14Comment

Can you imagine Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian hanging in GB?
