As an actual wide receiver? No contest, Golden Tate blows Dex away.

Tate has all of 36 more receiving yards in his career than McCluster. By that logic Tate is better than Frank Gore because since he has been in the league he has more receiving yards than Gore. After all, as a true WR Tate is better. |

Completely unfair. As a WR, Dex has 34 career catches in 14 games, and probably 1/3 of those came with him coming from the backfield in 2010.

Career receiving yards: McCluster - 679 yds Tate - 715 yds It doesn't matter where he is listed as a starter one bit. What am I missing? As a receiver, Calvin Johnson is better than Ray Rice. But who would you rather have? |

Comparing RB receiving yards to WR receiving yards is comparing apples to oranges. Dex sucks as a WR because he's not very good at beating CBs and is useless going down the field. He can produce some receiving yards as a RB because he's matched up on linebackers, can catch screens, etc. That doesn't translate to his play as a WR. He has about 300 yards as an actual WR, doing WR things, running routes. Period. End of discussion.

So I will say again, Calvin Johnson is better than Ray Rice at doing WR things, but Ray Rice is still the better football player that most people would prefer to have. |

Oh, I am. Sorry. They are both wide receivers, so that's kind of important.

Dude, I mean seriously who gives a flying **** if he's catching passes out of the backfield or in the slot, as long as he contributing to helping make plays and helping this team thats all that matters. There is so much more you can do with McCluster. He can run, catch, return kicks, play the slot, create mismatches, he's a utility player that can cause some serious problems for defenses.

No he's not doin that anymore due to their love for Arenas. I'd rather have McCluster returning kicks and punts instead of Arenas. Arenas has been complete shit as a returner. Wanna talk bout wasted pick, Arenas definately is, all he is good at is blitzing the corner on a nickle blitz.
