Lets say this right now. I absolutely LOVE McGahee. To me he is a top 5 RB, probably top 2. By no means do I dislike the guy in any way shape or form. But, no player is perfect. He does have a few things that can be bothersome.
I still have yet to see true breakway speed from him
I do feel he bulls his way through and therefore sometimes goes down pretty quick
Now, I am a HUGE draft fan. Its ridiculous, I have watched the ENTIRE drafts and recorded the picks for the past 6 years by last count. Ive made good calls on players and bad calls on players. My most notable bust was Harrington who I really thought would be decent. However, I also predicted guys like Kearse, Jamal Lewis, Shaun Alexander, Tomlinson, Chad Johnson, Eli, Carson Palmer, and most recently Roy Williams WR and Jerome Mathis (not there yet just wait).
In my estimation and honest opinion, Reggie Bush is the best prospect since Barry Sanders at RB. Yes that includes Marshall Faulk. This guy is a future star and can do for the RB world what Manning has done for the QB world. Hes that good.
I see some assets for the Bills in a guy like Bush. If he gets past the D-line, hes gone. There is NO ONE that can catch this guy. I think he has the field vision and sick moves to rival Sanders.
So, your the Bills. You already have a top 5 RB, and you end up having Reggie drop into your lap. Do you take him? I could argue that I would. I would ONLY do it if you cant trade down right there and you were not gonna get LOTS of picks to do it. You then could probably trade either to some teams and get a kings ransom in return. Will another team pull a Ditka and fess a whole draft? probably not, but maybe their top 5 picks or something? who knows.
Personally I am a McGahee fan and want nothing more than him at RB. But, if our worst fears come true and we end up top 5 in the draft, he might drop, probably will be a top 2 pick, but if he dropped to us and we couldnt get enough to move down, Id think long and hard about taking him.

I would love Reggie Bush too, but we need serious help on the line.
