2006: 11th RB, 79 points: 1,12,1,6,8,1,B,0,6,13,0,13,2,2,6,8,-

What a nice line for a guy picked up with the fifth or sixth pick in last year's draft.

And, it beats Bush by 8 points who was a sometimes first and definitely second round pick.

Why would everyone forget this guy? In fact I passed on him because in every draft, I had so many solid backs by the fifth round I started filling other positions!

The Deuce is a solid, hard running professional and thinking that the ultimate hybrid-promise rookie would outperform him was to not think like an offensive coordinator and a failure to assess the strengths of the team.

Each team will have a focus of the offense and a focus of the offensive scoring.

On this one Marquis Colston kind of stole the show early, but, Bush is the focus of the offense and McAllister is the focus of the scoring.

If your league counts silly points for 10 and 20 yards then he still had 1250 total yards to Bush's 1300.

Do you really think this will change that much?

If you are in charge of the Saints offense and you have these weapons and need to play them in their most effective way, then why not use Bush as a foil more often then not because these coaches could care less that you drafted him in the first round they are looking to advance the ball and win games!

Deuce will be an excellent third or fourth round pick-up for any team that finds it's drafted QBs and WRs earlier.

He will have another steady, excellent season and be a welcome team player on any fantasy team.

New Orleans will do well this year and he is a well rested bruiser, a closer that they will bring out to get the job done.
