Who's the better keeper: Bush or Lynch?

[ccsammy21]

What do you guys think? Personally, I think Bush is very overrated and Lynch deserves much more praise. Thoughts?

[Popcynical]

Bush was a top 5 RB in PPR leagues... so it all depends.

Lynch is the better back in my PPR...Bush is 10th while Lynch is 15, and Lynch missed what 4 games. He would have surpassed Bush over a full season.

I'd say Lynch at this point, even in PPR leagues. Bush's PPR value was much better with a healthy Deuce, but Deuce is getting older now and I've no idea if the Saints plan on keeping him much longer.

[moochman]

Bush by a hair.

The Saints should score more and score more consistantly. I like Lynch better, but Reggie Bust has a better offense around him.

I'd take Bush in PPR leagues no matter what the value of a reception is. If Bush would have progressed at all this year he would have been right behind Westbrook. I'd take the chance that Bush progresses next year to be a top 3 PPR back.

In my 1 pt PR league he's the 5th best RB and 1/2 PR he's 11th. Other factors are involved in those rankings but I think it's safe to say when you keep Bush you're getting a top 10 PPR back barring injury (which every RB runs the risk of). I see no way he regresses from this years stats and there is a better chance he progresses next year. I can't say the same for Lynch.

Even if Bush progressed he wouldn't have been close to Westbrook IMO. Westbrook in my PPR is ahead of every RB even LT and AD. Bush simply isn't a feature back IMO.

What would make you think that Lynch would regress next year? I've seen him play 4 times this year, and he's looked very, very talented each time. I don't really see any reason to doubt his abilities.

After tonights game (and most of this season), it's looking more and more like the Texans made the right move in the draft last year. Maybe Bush will progress but as of right now, he's proven he can't be the featured back in the vein of westbrook or faulk (running and catching). So far, he's needed another back to carry some of the burden (McFatty at USC and Duece last year). Lynch has looked pretty good and is a more pure back than Bush. I think Bush is going to fall into a niche, while Lynch will be a featured back for years to come.

Munboy i know you meant lendale white, but if McFadden ever became fat, McFatty would be a great nickname for him.
