Yeah, Harvin had three more catches than McCluster over his college career.

Did I really toute Thomas?

He's 6'3 230 and he's a year away, McCluster doesn't have his upside.

Both of them seem to fit the playmaker role, it would seem.

well sure they were. He was catching them coming out of the RB position. Dexter rarely lineup in the slot, if ever.

So I understand your concern about that because in a sense he is a "project", but the guy is freakishly good at whatever he attempts, so I imagine he'll do fine at that as well.

I was responding to the post that "Harvin has been catching passes since they came out of his mom's vagina." He caught the same number of passes as McCluster, with a very similar average.

I think McCluster will be a difference maker in this league, and said as much way before the Chiefs drafted him. I'm a big fan of his.

I think he's a playmaker, regardless of the comparisons

[OleMissCub]

all this Harvin talk reminded me of a stat I saw earlier today:

One of only two players (Florida's Percy Harvin) to rank top 10 in the SEC in rushing yards, receiving yards, receptions and all-purpose yards

[DeezNutz]

If we don't reach on a CB and reach (and trade ****ing picks) for an injury-prone TE, no one is bitching about McCluster.

There would probably be some legit excitement about his versatility.

YPC Averages for McCluster:

2006: 15.5 YPC
2007: 12.1 YPC
2008: 14.2 YPC
2009: 11.8 YPC

A lot. And it needs to be immediate.

No excuses.

I cannot answer that question but I have a feeling that he's going to be electrifying.

Have you seen him play or watched his clips? He's special.

I hope it translates to the NFL.

I can't believe I agree with you, Dane.

I'm really surprised you're taking this draft so well. Pleasantly surprised, actually.

This is the truth. Don't give me 40 times, that's sideshow bullshit. This guy clowned good players all the time.
