What happened to Succop?

Replaced by a spaniard who can kick 55 yarders

Really just drives me up the wall that the same people that were pining for DeSean Jackson are worried about this guy's height and weight when they're virtually identical size.

Anyone who thinks this kid is not better than DMC is crazy. He will be twice as good at WR. Clearly an upgrade.

His bio sounds eerily like Justin Medlock's.

not worried about his height, but 174 lbs pretty damn small. if there is anyway he could get to 190 and keep his speed that would be a big help for him vs NFL competition

Tavon Austin is 176... Not worried.

Also now his measurements say he is 5'10

He measured in at 5' 9.3". They just rounded it up.

DAT's change of direction is amazing while McCluster had nothing but that useless spin move to try and make defenders miss, and he's not going to go down every time he's touched either. We must value that ability to cut on a dime bc we got two of the best backs in the past two drafts in that department.

The biggest differences between Thomas and McCluster is that the McCluster we all know was playing against NFL defenses. Thomas' highlights are from college in a system that put up sick yardage and points.

McCluster's college highlights are just as impressive as Thomas'.

If you want an apples to apples comparison, here is their NFL Combine numbers:

McCluster
5'9"
172 lbs.
Arms: 29 1/4"
Hands: 8 3/8"
40: 4.58
Vertical: 37.5"
Broad: 118"
Bench: 20 reps

Thomas
5'9"
174 lbs.
Arms: 29 7/8"
Hands: 8 1/8"
40: 4.50
Vertical: 32"
Broad: 124"
Bench: 8 reps

The thing that worries me about Thomas is that his final season at Oregon was his worst in terms of statistics/production. Lowest rushing total, lowest reception/yardage total, lowest average yards from scrimmage, half of the touchdowns he had the previous season, etc.

Thomas 2013:
Rushing:
96 attempts
594 yards
8 TDs

Receiving:
22 receptions
246 yards
1 TD

Scrimmage:
118 plays
840 yards
7.1 ypa
9 TDs

McCluster 2009:
Rushing:
181 attempts
1169 yards
8 TDs

Receiving:
44 receptions
520 yards
3 TDs

Scrimmage:
225 plays
1689 yards
7.5 ypa
11 TDs

Thomas injured his ankle earlier in the year and was kind of phased out of the offense. There's really nothing else to it.

I think it's about time we let Succop go, if only so the Chiefs can have a kicker who's capable of getting a touchback in Madden.

:clap: Tell it like it is. Dex was / is MUCH stronger. (So was Dante Hall) DAT is just the kind of guy you worry about not being able to take the pounding of the NFL. He is a little dude on a small frame. If he bulks up, he slows down. Thats why guys like him dont usually make it in the NFL, yet they kick ass in college. BIG difference in talent. Maybe he'll be the exception. IF he pans out, the Chiefs have themselves a great value player.

People keep mentioning Austin. He flashed last year at times, but they were hoping to get more out of him. Other than a few dnamic plays he made, what did he do? Thats why you pick this type of player up the mid to late rounds, rather than the early one's.

Okay, fair enough, Rams are clueless to how to use him...

Here is another similarity you'll probably find fun... DeSean Jackson... 5'10 179
