A first rounder? I bet we'd give him up for a 4th or later

You are thinking very very short term then.royce1054 said:Jets fans are almost as bad as fans from Chicago.. These people are under the impression set out by the Jets front office that they dont wnat Leinhart and they used the NY post for that. Now C mart is only going to be back for 1 more year with the jets. With Feidler and Pennington on their team and both with injuries there is no way they will not get out the 1st 2 picks with out drafting one of those 2 players. I see the Jets making a crazy deal to get Bush and make sure that SF doesnt... thats if we dont have the 1st pick. Then you have to think NYJ has a pretty good O-line just cant keep a QB healthy. I bet Bush would flourish there. They have Jolly to as a TE to take the man out of the box. I see the Jets as Bush's best option for Success. i dont see that in Houston or SF.
tulexan said:The only thing I have to say though, is that if the Jets need a running back, why not try to get Shaun Alexander? He is a young proven running back who will probably be cheaper than Reggie Bush and it won't cost them future draft picks. If they have so many deep holes, wouldn't that be the best avenue of rebuilding their team?

i'm glad to see you finally come around, because just replace jets with texans and you have something.
why wont this work w/us, and only the jets? why must WE draft bush?
tulexan said:Because we don't have to trade up to draft Reggie Bush. We aren't giving up anything.
tulexan said:Can Shaun Alexander line up in the slot or as a wideout? How about returning punts? Reggie fits this team because he can play multiple positions that we have holes in. Who is our #2 receiver? Gaffney sometimes and Bradford sometimes. Both have one thing in common, they suck. Who returns our punts? Mathis runs backwards towards our own endzone, Buchanon is inactive, and Davis becomes winded and can't play in the series after returning punts.
Your right we shouldn't take a "smallish back". Tiki Barber, who I guess is a "smallish back" (about 5'10 200). Just had 211 rushing yards today. And your right he is unproven, but what college player is? Maybe we shouldn't draft anyone because they are all unproven.

Obviously NYJ would be good but mainly because of the marketing dollars he would make for playing in that HUGE market.
Football wise...the guy is going the be just fine regardless of what team he goes to.
