McCluster really came alive at the end of the season. It showed big time what he can do when we have a QB that can actually stretch the defense a bit. That opened up a lot of the underneath stuff which is where I think McCluster can really live in out of the slot.
The big problem is... now what? You've got 3 WRs in Bowe, Baldwin, and Breaston. You've got Jamaal Charles and you would want to bring in a thumper to take carries away from him. And as an 11th, you'd want an extra TE or a FB like McClain. Where is McCluster going to actually see snaps, other than being a 3rd down back who can shift to the slot? Unless you decide to get rid of Bowe and shift Breaston to the #2 receiver, but is Breaston capable of handling that as well as he does the slot?
