Reggie Bush (PRO) – Bush and Brian Westbrook were the only running backs to rank in the top 25 in receptions last season, and the former Trojan will again be a threat in that area. His biggest negative has been in the running game. Bush has a tendency to dance at the line and run side-to-side instead of hitting the hole immediately. Another year under his belt should give him a greater understanding of his skill set, and as a result he’ll improve on the ground. While the Saints will not force him to solely shoulder the load in the backfield, he’ll be a bit more explosive this season, especially in the passing game. His expectations were too high after a boom-or-bust rookie season. He should be considered a number-two fantasy back.

Reggie Bush (CON) - He's fast. He's got moves on top of moves. We get it. Did anyone care to check if he could, you know, be an NFL running back? Hello? Yoo-hoo! NFL scouts?! All that zigging and zagging in college did absolutely nothing to translate into NFL success. Bush's problem, of course, is that he can't find success getting to the outside. So he's a six-foot, (yeah right) 200-pound inside runner. Sure, he's deadly as a receiver, but let's not mince words: In non-PPR leagues, Bush is nothing more than a glorified third-down back.
