Reggie Bush Anyone?

Is Jerry interested in Bush?

Reggie Bush | Saints | Interested: Cowboys?, Redskins?, Lions?, Titans?, Seahawks?, 49ers? Top Email

Options for Saints
Try to re-work Reggie's deal -- possibly by tacking additional years onto it -- thereby lessening the hit in 2010.
Find a trade partner, although would anyone give up a worthy package in exchange for Bush at his currently-promised salary?
Pay that man his money.

The Reggie Bush scenario continues to be captivating. It would appear that Bush is more valuable to Sean Payton and the Saints than he would be for some other teams; on the other hand, is he really worth his full-contracted rate of $8 million for 2010?Peter King has opined that the team will pay him his full $8 million instead of running the risk of losing him.

If Bush somehow hits the market, the teams that could go after him include the Seahawks, 49ers, Titans and Lions. What about a trade? Some teams might scoff at the $8 million contracted salary, but the NFL's version of the Red Sox and Yankees would not. Based on owner Daniel Snyder's free-spending habits, we would be remiss to not include the Redskins in this trade group, and although he doesn't spend to the same degree as Snyder, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has proven to be a man that won't shy away based solely on a player's salary demands. Both teams could use the massive upgrade in the return game, and the Skins would appreciate the help in the backfield.

As for the Seahawks, NFC West blogger Mike Sando doesn't think Bush's lofty price tag will keep them away:

ZOMG Oh no's not a playmaker for the Cowboys. How will we ever stop his east west running style!!!?!?!??
