I'm quoting this in case anyone missed it. The guy was a MONSTER out of the backfield at Ole Miss.

If only we coulda drafted Golden Tate or DeSean Jackson light in the third...

So McCluster is more talented than message board posters....

Best #36 pick ever.

Pairing with him?

Dude has the same opinion I do. I'd bet there are others that share it as well.

There's nothing irrational about it - I'm not going to rationalize a pick just because the dude has an Arrowhead on his helmet now.

It was an average pick at best if the dude was going to be a slot WR.

It's a waste of a very high 2nd round pick to move him to RB full time at 5-nothing and 170 pounds.

Everyone wants to be excited over the kid because he made a 240 pound FB miss on a wet field on opening night and was never touched the rest of the way.

Everyone hates the pick when it was made BECAUSE he was listed as a RB. Everyone flipped the **** out.

Then everyone rationalized the pick when they realized he'd be used as a slot WR.

Now he's back to a full-time RB, and y'all are tripping over yourselves trying to convince anyone that will listen that "the black Wes Welker" is now going to be the next Jamaal Charles.

It's pretty ****ing comical to watch, actually.

I hope the kid proves me wrong. Since we're here to talk football and express opinions, however, my opinion is that he won't.

Why do you guys keep saying #3? You do know there is a difference between 3rd down back and #3 back, don't you?

And I know you don't seriously think Haley is going to just keep Dex on the bench.....He will be involved....far more than any #3 back would be.

And some of you have done nothing but praise the pick since it was made.

Your point?

And I don't think I've ever said he was a bust.

I have said he wasn't worth that high of a pick.

Disaster? Really? A tad overstated, IMO.

read the post...Haley described him as a 3rd down back


he's a postionless player....a gadget...the 36th pick in the draft

How dare you pair up with Clayton, you irrational bastard?

Everyone started rationalizing the pick once they SAW what he could do on the field. Something that you and GC want to ignore.

The kid is a playmaker anyway you slice it. If you watched any Cheifs games, it was clear to see. He has home run potential and Haley will use him. That's all that matters.

I was pissed last year when I saw the Chiefs second round picks and nothing has changed to make me feel different. Both picks were EPIC wastes of second round picks especially on a team with so many needs. The only good part of those picks is that at the time I was on a bar crawl in the French Quarter so I was able to numb the pain.

I still think Dex has a lot of potential. Speed kills.

LMAO

This is comical. He wasn't a playmaker. He made 3 or 4 great plays and the rest of the year he made the most exciting 3 and 4 yard catches in NFL history. His dreadlocks fluttered about wildly as he gained those 3 and 4 yards like a true stud.

The dude is NOT a playmaker. In the playoffs, he was a great big waste of touches.

Unrealistic expectations are fueling all this talk of bust. As long as the guy ends up being a solid contributor for a number of years, he'll be a successful pick. Sure you can get pro-bowlers at the top of the second round, but the vast majority of those selected in that part of the draft don't go on to become pro-bowlers. Whether he's ever a starter or not (and I doubt he will be whether he plays running back or slot receiver), as long as he's a solid contributor, I'll be satisfied with him.

4th and 6 inches called, and wants its toss-sweep back.

Listen, I'm not saying we HAVE to have a power back.

But if you watched this team AT ALL last year, you know that short yardage was a huge issue - and that's WITH Jones on the roster.
