I would guess this site would have more a feel for how Bush is going to be used this year than some others I frequent. How is he going to do this year for fantasy owners? Any hints coming out of camps and practice as to how involved he's going to be in the offense?

I have him it my two leagues. One as a decent backup in a 10 team std scoring league and one as a starter in a 16 team PPR league.

I like how he finished last year running. He has always been able to catch the ball. And if you are in a leauge that values TD's much more than yardage or PPR, he is worth a shot due to the screen/swing pass inside the 20 (he gets a shot once a game it seems).

It always depends on what else is available when you are drafting, but I think mose people underestimate his value since he is not going to get 1000 yds rushing. 400-500 rushing, 500 receiving and 5 tds is likley.

~65 recpts, 1000 total yds and 10 tds sounds nice.

As a PT owner, I hate to say it, but Bush is gonna have a really big year, especially in PPR + return yard leagues.

Yes. That would be solid. I got him in the 8th or 8th round of my 10 team league. I've got Turner and Greene as my starters, but I have no problem playing him in a favorable matchup.

Good luck Reggie.

I got him in 6th rd in a 12 team PPR league as my #3rb. I think Reggie is going to have a great year, especially in PPR format.

Got MJD and Jamaal Charles as my #1 and #2.

He is good in a TD heavy or PPR format. His value is a flex starter, or a low end starter in a deeper league. (he gets a nice bump if your league counts return yardage)

One of the issues he has is that he tends to get injured at least once a year and miss a few games and then they tend to slowly get him back in the offense for 1 or 2 games.

He offers massive upside if he can stay healthy. I could see him with 1k total yards and 9+ td's if he plays for 16 games but...i think 700-800 total yards and 5-7 td's is more realistic.
