1. reggie bush (2nd overall pick in 2006 nfl draft)

2. Adrian Peterson ( 7th overall pick in 2007 nfl draft)

3. Darren Mcfadden ( top 5 overall pick in 2008 nfl draft)

big hype players most bush... bush looks more like a bust and way better then mc fadden and peterson in college. but who has the most talent? bush. most overhyped of the 3? bush.

so answering my question i think peterson will have a hall of fame career. and bush cant run in the nfl and mcfadden is the same style speedster shake n bake in college. everyone knows those players dont work in the nfl.

i believe mc fadden n bush will be one of the biggest disappoint ments in nfl history...bush had this yr to break out!!!did he no! this was his chance to prove he can play in the nfl...even deven hester has a better career then bush( i think 6th rd pick) even bush teammate colston...and bush was known for his returns...

peterson will have atleast 14000 rush yds when hes done.

I think there's only 2 players in NFL history or maybe 5 with 14000+ career rushing yards. I wouldn't put a rookie in that class yet. Edgerrin James had 1700+ rushing yards in his rookie season as a 20 years old, but injury derailed him. Peterson with his running style and injury history is liable to get big or small injuries throughout his career.

I think Peterson will be the best. I don't know anything about McFadden. I do think Bush will be a very good back in this league. I refuse to believe a guy with his talent doesn't have a place in this league. He's one of the best receivers out of the backfield and if he learns to run a little better, he'll be a top 7-10 back in this league.

Peterson, already proven, Bush so far is a flop, McFadden who knows but the odds are against him being as good as AP was this year already.

My vote goes to Peterson, which is a shame because he's in my teams division.

Bush is not a bust, nor will he be. When he gets teamed with a bruiser back, all hell breaks loose.

With that said, Adrian Peterson will be the best BY FAR. McFadden, on the otherhand, has bust written all over him imo.

AP by far...

Reggie Bush has been a flop so far. No one knows how D-Mac will turn out but I doubt he'll have the immediate impact AP had.

AP clearly has the talent but of course he's playing behind a great O-Line. Injuries and you're offensive line are a big part of being a good RB.

Exactly, it depends which team drafts McFadden. If it's the Raiders, McFadden will have to do a lot of work on his own, maybe if the Jets draft him, their OL will pan out from the 06 draft.

If Peterson can stay healthy, then he will be very successful. If not, Bush will be the best of the 3.

D- Mac will go to the Raiders with the 3rd pick and have a HOF career and Peterson will be good also. Bush is a bust.

Mcfadden - who knows

Reggie Bush just doesn't have it, you can already tell. He will always be that great all around player, but he'll never be able to carry the load like AP already can. Reggie can go out for passes, return kicks and punts, and hes really fast, but hes just not strong enough to be a full time back.

Adrian Peterson - do I have to say anything? This guy is a legend already.

I'd Say AD finishes with a Fred Taylor esque Legacy (plauged by injury) Then D Fad, then Bush. But if AD doesnt get injured alot, he'll be top 5 RB's pf all time

The Raiders were 5th in the NFL in rushing this season. :|

And yes, you did offend my team. :evil: :P

look at what fargas did this yr? 1000 yds and was injured. also shared loads w jordan n rhodes. so mcfadden could have 1200 yds but i dont see it. raiders dont need rb when they got fargas jordan n rhodes. they need d line, ol, mlb, s's, and wr for russel. take either jake or chris long. if not trade down get more picks n draft de sean jackson...

reggie bush was overhyped and overrated. When's the last time you heard about him? The saints came nowhere close to getting in the playoffs, complete bust.

I'd say adrian peterson, although he's not leading the team anywhere

I'm not ready to consider Reggie a complete bust, after all it's not his fault everyone was hyping him up to be best player that ever lived. In his rookie season he set a rookie record for most receptions. Last year, well the whole Saints team got off to a terrible start, then Deuce went down and that hurts Reggie as well (Reggie's biggest threat is him being a decoy, there are countless plays where they fake the ball to Reggie and get a huge gain). Oh, and the Saints were very close to getting into the playoffs, they needed to win in the last week and have Washington and the Giants (maybe) lose and the Saints would have gotten in.

I think McFadden will. Flame me but I think Reggie is overrated and I see Adrian Peterson getting himself into a serious injury with his style of running.

Fargas is a free agent and Jordan will probaly be cut
