The fact that Dexter is less shitty doesn't mean much.

But you idiots argued that Dexter was a bust due to where he was picked, but Baldwin was an even bigger bust ,yet you guys don't hate on him nearly as bad?
With Baldwin it is always "Maybe if we got someone to coach him up a little next year". He's a bust, and because he's a bust, we've had to utilize a running back out of the backfield and the slot to make up for his lack of production, same went for Breaston too.
You misconstrue "production" and "playmaker" for "this guys puts up 500 yards a game and scores every drive".
Come back down to reality. It is because of guys like Dexter, that we ever converted 1st downs in the first place.
Think about this for a minute, opposing defenses know that they can leave Baldwin wide open, he'll never catch anything, even a cold. Bowe will just get double teamed. That leaves us with Moeaki and McCluster. McCluster if faster and shiftier, and we can start him from more positions than Moeaki, whereas Moeaki is a much better blocker and 2nd level blocker.
So we used the **** out of McCluster. He didn't have great YPC, but we weren't looking for that in our offense.
We had Matt Cassel throwing to guys who were triple covered, you won't get YAC out of this offense, and considering 93.2% of every completion thrown was within 5 yards of the line of scrimmage, you aren't giving him a chance to run routes. So of course his YPC sucks.
But, he did move the ball forward as a runner and receiver, he is the most versatile player in our offense, and he stepped up last year when everyone laid down.
So yeah, Dexter rocks, and has since he came here, and Andy Reid was high on him, so I'm going to support Dex and hope he has another good year for us in 2013.
