What about Randall Cobb, overall our ST unit was in the top half in every aspect last year, I’ll take that any day.

This might be the first instance where an actual commitment of sorts was shown. Bush has developed into an excellent special teams player, and it would have been a shame to see him go after suffering years of growing pains with the guy.

He has the athleticism to do whatever he wants in the NFL. The problem is he would rather jump routes that straight cover guys.

He deserves credit for that pick in the Super Bowl. He may have ignored his own guy, but he saw where the QB wanted to go with the football and jumped it. Like Woodson, he is actually a pretty dangerous guy when in the middle of the field. His problem is that he is dangerous to the defense when lined up on the outside.

This contract pays him just above the veteran minimum. It is a good signing for the Packers.

Yeah he made the play in the super bowl which I was happy about but that was the only play he had ever made before this season. And this season it was only on Special Teams. He is an awful corner no awareness of the ball, gets burned a lot and can’t cover. Bush was responsible for a lot of blown games in 2009 season. As long as he’s off the field during defense and stays to Special teams I’m fine with his mil a year contract.

He’s a excellent special teams players, and a lot of that goes unnoticed.

I like Bush as a ST’er, and a last ditch CB, but unfortunately he brings a lot of risk in his coverage. Sure that risk can be outweighed a bit with his athleticism, but until he has his head in the right places at the right time, I’d like to keep him on just ST as often as possible.

It’s not like he’s breaking the bank or anything. Compare his salary to A.J. Hawk’s…plus he did have an INT in the Super Bowl, even if he was in the wrong spot on the field at the time
