Count me in the 'whats the big deal' camp, as long as he's productive wherever he is, i'm all for it.
Thought we had a WR but got a speedy & jukey RB instead, big deal. |

We saw flashes of what he can do. He made the big play. He is a playmaker. It sucks that he had several of them taken back for stupid penalties, but I don't have any doubts that he can be valuable at RB.

Seriously.... compare the groups minus Dex and tell me which group is more in need of quality additions.. Hell we had to sign a WR off the street to play in a playoff game last year.

RBs can be targets in the passing game too (e.g. Brian Westbrook). 3rd down backs, in particular.

McMidget is starting to smell like a wasted pick.

This. Haley can get so creative with these two guys in backfield. They showed glimpses of it last season.
I don't want them to stuff a big, slow back in the backfield when Charles comes out. They need a shifty, fast replacement so our offense doesn't miss a beat.

It was an awful pick when it was made, it's an even worse one now. The amount of talent available in that 2nd round was truly staggering and we took a goddamn midget that can't play the position we had hoped for him. And the best defense we can come up with is that it allows Haley, who was absolutely incompetent when calling plays 2 season ago, to be more creative in his offense. Yeah, that's gonna work out well. The pick was a disaster.

Disaster? Really? A tad overstated, IMO.

The man we should've taken forced the fumble that ended the season for us last season when he pursued the RB from behind and stripped the ball.
We're still looking at getting a LBer with our 1st rounder who's not likely to be better than Washington out of TCU who was another guy we should've considered. Oh yeah, and that doesn't even get into the myriad of WRs that would've been great pickups for us last season at that spot that we passed on. Yeah, I'd say that's a disaster. When you look at not only what he's been and where we took him, but also what the opportunity cost was in a very very deep draft, that pick has been a complete mess.
