Darren Sproles


I think what we all hope for is for Reggie to put up the kind of numbers that Sproles was giving San Diego at the end of last year.

Absolutely agree, but Sproles is a good running back.

Sproles had 5.1 yards per carry and 11.8 yards per catch compared to Bush's 3.8 ypc and 8.5 yards per catch.

Problem is that Sproles was a 4th round pick and is second string to LT who is the man at RB. Here in NO, Bush was a second overall pick and supposed to be the man at RB.

Not hating on RB, but he isn't as good as a lot of y'all are making him out to be.

I think a lot of people way underrate bush and alot of people way overrate the guy. id venture to say that he is slightly overrated. he is a good player, just not a featured rb. he hasnt shown the capability to be a consistent player week in and week out. thats what separates the great players from the avg to good players.

one thing I will say is he is dang lucky he plays here. he would struggle on alot of others teams with different offensive philosophies.

Bush's cap hit for this year is $12.1M I believe. Based on the last 3 year it's hard to believe he'll be worth that.
