RIP Reggie

Is Reggie Bush done?  With the news (albeit from Yahoo, who has about as successful of a track record with their "inside sources" as I do at the race track) coming out of New Orleans this week that the Saints may not re-sign him, the former number two overall pick could be finished as a useful fantasy contributor.  I mean, he hasn't been great in New Orleans, but what other team is going to offer the amount of scoring opportunities as the Saints?  No one is going to sign him to be a lead back, and no one is going to use him at the goal line.  So, where exactly does that leave us?  Is he going to be Dave Meggett?  He certainly isn't Marshall Faulk.  Unfortunatley, I think we're looking at a player who has already peaked in terms of fantasy value, and probably will never be fantasy relevant again.

Cheers,
TFAM

I'm a believer in Reggie. He's got a long career a head of him. I think when his career is over, his final stats will read something like Tiki Barber's statistics. In which, not that great the first two to three years, then gaining a little more muscle, weight, strength, maintain speed, gain game knowledge, recognize defenses better, and have a Head Coach fall in love with him.
