My bad. I should have taken into account the people who look at return yards.

KR yards are cheap yards. He averaged 22.3 yards on KRs. If he doesn't return the ball at all we start at the 20. So he gained us an extra 2.3 yards 25 times. He averaged 10.8 yards on PRs on 6 attempts. So he effectively gained 122.3 yards we wouldn't have already had.

I stopped reading this post right here. This is exactly why, as disappointed as I am with Pioli, I'm glad the fans are not given the reigns for a day.

The only way I would even consider Richardson at 11 or 12 is as bait for a profitable trade down.

Hmmm...I see where everyone is talking about my mistake on McCluster.

I will concede the mistake but I would need an explanation.

Were the issues with McCluster all part of Cassel being in there or Issues with the Offensive Coordinator putting in bad plays. (whomever the OC was since heck we don't really know who was calling plays)

I think the issue with me is that I have not evolved from the old school thinking of power run game. I didn't see where McCluster fit. That is why I went the direction I did and would probably pick up some O-line help in either Free Agency or the draft in the second round or whenever.

I guess it is all a moot point if they trot Cassel out there again.

You saw how McClain could be used when Orton was in the game.

Bring back McClain on a 1-2 year deal.
Let Jones go.
Draft a RB.

Charles, McCluster, Rookie, McClain

McClain was still shit with Orton. He was better but shit nevertheless. Missing blocks. Getting owned. Dropping balls.
I am fine with keeping him though. He has potential and is young.

Sign Snelling from Atlanta in FA. Bring Battle back at a minimum. Cut McClain. Draft a rb in the late rounds and pick up another UDFA.

This...

My take exactly.

This.
