a) Hate the pick because he was listed as a RB b) Rationalize the pick because he was moved to the slot c) Make ridiculous claims that he's the next Wes Welker/DeSean Jackson/Percy Harvin. d) Continue defending the pick when he's moved back to RB - which everyone hated originally. OOOH! Slash and dash! Then maybe, this wouldn't keep popping back up. Bottom line, SO FAR, Dexter nor the coaching staff have done anything to prove the people that hated the pick and have stuck to their opinion wrong. If he played for any of our division rivals, most, if not all of you would be laughing at what a shitty pick it was. |

No.
I don't think McCluster is going to magically get quicker, faster or bigger over the offseason. And they're giving up on him as a WR so we don't really need to explore the idea that he might learn to run routes better. |

It was a perfect example in that you can put it up next to his 'elusiveness' in the college clips. There are plays he made in college where he did that little spin and got some grocery sacker to drop his jock. "WOW! What a playmaker!!" He tried it at the NFL level and a legitimate player (not even a very good player) put him on his ass. It's not dispositive for its result, but for the manner in which it got there. It wasn't him slipping on a cut or mis-reading a running lane. It was him in the open field making the exact kind of move that wowed the folks that were slobbing his knob a year ago and getting his shit pushed in for it. His game doesn't translate to the NFL and that clip does a lot to show why.

That's great, cherry pick one of the two impact plays he made last year.

"grocery sacker" is a great derogatory term for shitty players....must use in future!

Wouldn't that probably give us the smallest running back duo in the league.
That also makes WR a bigger need. Not much but a bigger need.

He stood out in college, where there might have been a handful of guys that have NFL-level talent. The rest are selling insurance in ****ing Mobile or Gulfport. I just don't think he's the "special" player others do. Not in a class with Hester, DeSean Jackson, Harvin, etc. He's just another guy. IMO, he'll be even less special as a full-time RB. |

And nobody wants to talk about the play vs the Niners or the punt return that was the game winning TD? The potential is certainly there was it worth taking a gadget player in round 2? Probably not. But he's not really a busy just yet.

He is a gadget player, it doesn't really matter what position they list him at... His role will probably be about the same
