Saints Set At Running Back…

Despite the release of Travis Henry, and the rumors that New Orleans was interested in Shaun Alexander earlier this off-season, we’ve heard that Sean Payton and Mickey Loomis are very happy with the progress of Deuce McAllister and the fire that they’ve seen from Reggie Bush.

Bush recently made some positive comments about wanting to get into the Saints facility this off-season and work his butt off. We expect improvement from Bush in year three, and for Deuce to end up being a solid fantasy RB3 in 2008.

Deuce McAllister Is Looking Good…

Saints head coach Sean Payton spoke to Sirius NFL Radio recently and had great things to say about the recovery of Deuce McAllister from ACL surgery on his left knee and microfracture surgery on his right knee.

Deuce’s rehab is ahead of schedule and he’s expected to start for New Orleans in 2008, according to Payton.
