McCluster definitely moving to RB full-time

Beat writer Bob Gretz suggests the Chiefs will, in fact, move Dexter McCluster to running back full time.

Coach Todd Haley hinted in February that McCluster would be more of a third-down back than slot receiver. Gretz suggests McCluster could also be used in a "flash-dash duo" with Jamaal Charles. We still have a hard time envisioning enough weekly touches for McCluster to

Now, I guess you can pump three-yard passes to McCluster all day long. But your offense is not going to move the ball that way.

It's a moot point anyway. If McCluster is going to be a running back instead of a wide receiver, his touches are not going to explode. I actually had some hope he might learn how to be an NFL wide receiver and be a 50-catch guy someday....now....he's probably going to be a 30-catch guy who carries the ball a couple times a game.

He will never, ever live up to his draft position. And I'm guessing the love for him will never, ever end as long as he makes one exciting play a month.
Maybe all he has to do is one exciting play a month? **** YEA a play making difference that changes a game in our favor. Much better than a 2.2 ypc as of Jones gives us. That could be 4 to 5 extra wins this season, that Dexter helps us achieve in this stacked deck against us schedule. Maybe he can give us a few more exciting plays a month, YOU don't know he wont. I don't know that he will, but am exited that he is going to get the opportunity. It was the break out plays that JC had last year that was the difference makers in most of our games, but he didn't get those all the time.
Never knew when JC was going to break one but we knew sooner or later in a game it was bound to happen.
So if we can add a player that is capable of those type of break out plays and not put the pressure on JC for that I am for it.

If we can get Jackie Battle some reps and less Jones, I am for that too.

Dexter is capable of being a dynamic RB, just have to wait & see how it pans out.

McCluster in the 5th round, okay. #36th overall just is what it is, an EPIC FAIL.

I'm going to say it. I liked the McCluster pick, I still do. The league is changing, and guys like him are becoming more, and more, and more valuable.

Nah, Kolby Smith was worthless.

Jackie Battle is of nominal worth. Not a lot, mind you, but slightly less than zero.

There is more truth in this than you may have intended. Mizzou fans still think Daniel Chase is an NFL QB

Smaller, quicker guys who make people miss and are a threat to score every time they touch the ball. Those kind of players are becoming very, very valuable.

I understand people wanting us to take someone else there though....we had, and still have, a lot of holes. I am interested to see how Cody turns out though, but if you read about his rookie year we got way more out of DMC.

I wouldn't call him that. Jackie Battle was a STer and partly why he didn't get the reps at RB. I think he could have done better than Jones especially later in the season when Jones was breaking down. Coaches generally tend to play out the older proven vets than giving a kid the opportunity. I think that was the case for Jackie Battle not getting RB reps. It's a brand new season (hopefully) so Jackie Battle better take advantage of the opportunities he gets so he can prove himself. I'd rather watch a younger player struggle but get better than an old vet continue to degress as the season folds.
