Yes.

5/6 catches, 40 yrds a game

it's feasible for a few games but i just doubt it can be that consistent

It'll be less than that. McCluster gets touched he goes down....

most fantasy website still list him as a RB

Yahoo has him as a RB, WR now, but only added the WR portion in the last week it seems. I dropped him for Ogletree but will keep an eye on him.

5-6 catches for 40 yards isn't that great though, even in PPR.

I find it hard to believe that he was THAT toxic, caused that many problems with Cassel and the team, then was quickly signed by the Steelers to overhaul their offense.

It's a good old boy league, Tuna has got his back.

Thinkin his Tuna connection is burned, seeing that Tuna's son in law just fired him.

The only possible way I could see him with anywhere near 90 catches is if we are constantly playing from behind by double digits.

Maybe the Chiefs are gonna toss it around more this year than we think they will.

i don't know but he wasn't signed that quickly

in fact, get the feeling that if he didn't have steeler roots he wouldn't of gotten a OC level job at all. He probably would of had to go back to WR's.

•Said Haley and everyone in the organization knew Haley had to go, it wasn't a good fit.
•I noted my biggest criticism of Cassel is he is hesitant in the pocket, that he has to wait for the WR to be open to pull the trigger, versus anticipating the open WR. Zorn said that's a New England/Tom Brady way of doing it, give the QB all day in the pocket to find the open WR. •Zorn said Cassel practiced mistakes last 2 years, wasn't corrected properly in practice.
•He likes Daboll's offense, said it's a blend of West Coast and vertical passing game.
•Zorn loves McCluster, predicted he would have 90 catches this year. (so pick him up on your fantasy wire, I did..)
•He wasn't impressed with Moeaki, mostly because he was injured in Zorn's first year, but he said Moeaki's tape was just OK, that he wanted to see it live before praising the kid.
•He heaped huge praise on Hillis, and said Charles still isn't 100% (at the start of camp).
•He didn't blame Bowe for not signing, said no matter when he shows up he'll be way behind, all it takes is missing mini camps.
•Zorn said he had offers to go and coach elsewhere but the Chiefs wouldn't let him out of his contract, and declined other teams interests in interviewing him. He wouldn't say where, but did say he was happy to stay, to work with Daboll and Romeo. I like that we have a coach in demand.

I am having trouble believing that Zorn would be that forthcoming with some random dipshit on a plane.

Ya. Probably was what was said.

Steelers connection

It wouldn't entirely surprise me. Cassel's not going to start targeting guys 25 yards down the field out of nowhere, so I'm sure the underneath slants and crossing routes are going to be pretty common. And who is usually running those routes...?
