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

I think there is some merit to the argument that the high ankle sprain impeded him to an extent, and that it's also possible that he didn't make a smooth adjustment to the speed of NFL players.

He may still potentially become a bigtime playmaker.

However, if there is any truth to the rumor that he'll be used primarily out of the backfield, and he gets 10 carries a game, he'll be out of the league in 3 years, most likely.

Darren Sproles, who is bigger and stronger, was already showing signs of wear last year, and to a lesser extent the previous year, and he's only been in the league for 4 years?

If it's stupid it should have a simple answer.

Explain how McCluster will become a playmaker.

Adjusting to the speed of the game, having better instincts and reaction to make cuts and moves.

It's that simple.

I completely agree with this. As long as no other NFL player ever hits McCluster, he has a bright future.

At the risk of coming off like a troll, Dexter would improve in working at the same "position" he played last year and not trying to "learn" another one... Assuming that the coaching mindset is different for a slot WR who might line up occasionally in the backfield for screens / off tackle pitches versus learning running back responsibilities.

And, while I'm thinking about it, how often would Dex be called on to stay in on blitz protection as a rotational RB?

No he will get better at it like most players. I know you are trolling a subject you love.

Ne need to discuss it further with you. No matter what anybody says you will throw out some snarky comment.

A 5' 8" 170# third down back. Awesome. This team never ceases to amaze me, and we spent a second round pick on him. It doesn't matter he was one of the captains on his team. I'll bet he was a spirit captain because he was too fokn small to be anything else. I will admit that I bot into the hype after that Monday night game, but after that MEH!

You have just nailed it. The OP can't be true. If it is, then this team will have just proved they are the stupidest team ever. We spent a 5th on Dante Hall and at least he did something.

Seems a bit extreme. Especially considering that McCluster played RB in college.
