Reggie Bush

hmm ranking top backs
1- Adrien Peterson
2-Maurice Jones drew
3-Leeshan Mccoy
4-Arien Foster
5-Ray Rice
6-Frank Gore
7-Steven Jackson
8-Michael turner
9-Chris johnson


So all of these players are better backs no doubt now who is the last member of the top 10 is the good question.
I would go with Matt Forte
Bush has one good season in his entire career so hard to even rank him ahead of Marshawn Lynch or Mcgahee since they have had some very good seasons.
Rashard Mendenhall, Cedric Benson and Denagelo williams have also had more good seasons than him.
Maybe Bush will become that player but at this point he doesnt deserve to be ranked in the top 10 based on one season.
 
Watching reggie this season though.. He was so impressive, and you can tell its the tip of the iceberg. He can put up 2000 all purpose yards. He absolutely has that ability. We can use him better in the pass game then we did. He can return. And if you upgrade cOlumbo, add a bigtime qb and other weapons, i have no doubt he can do just what sproles did this year
 
Whether he is a "top-10" RB, should not be the question; he's Miami' #1 RB. He is a valuable weapon in an otherwise pedestrian offense. His skill set is most similar to that of Sproles and McCoy; and he is currently our best skill player on offense. This coaching staff must figure out how to exploit his talents whether as a full-time/part-time ball carrier, KR, WR, Wildcat QB, whatever. He should be the centerpiece of the new offense which the team can build it's season offensive game-plan around (depending on the QB situation of course) because he can threaten opposing defenses in many ways.

As such: Miami needs to find a capable back-up with the same skill sets so the offense is not disrupted if/when Bush gets hurt. Oregon's LaMicheal James has that same skill set and thus should be drafted. If not a veteran FA/trade must be acquired/made to back up Bush's unique position.
