Wow, the Chefs got a Dante Hall clone, minus the return ability. Just another “weapon” for Matt Cassel to under/over throw. My wife is from K. C. and suffers with these clowns every year…

7 yards per catch as a slot receiver???

That’s a joke!!!

He will at least get 4 yards per carry as a running back!!!!

Play him at tailback if Jamaal Charles is not healthy to play or Peyton Hillis wants to go to the CIA (based on likely bozo allegations)!!!

As an Ole Miss guy I watched him a lot in college. The guy is electric with the ball. Definitely a change of pace back who can catch the ball out of the backfield and in the slot. To fast for linebackers and quick for safeties. If they use him more like his rookie season and like Ole Miss did, he will move the chains and score points.

Pioli drafted him waaay to high and they have been trying to justify it ever since. McCluster is a nice kick return man and good situational guy to have but those guys don’t usually get pick in the 2nd round.

Why not use him like the saints used Sproles and Bush? He could be dangerous.

The problem with being valuable at many different positions is that you’re not truly valuable at any. I hope he finds his niche though.

He will at least have a handful of great plays. He has so much speed.

As long as the Chiefs don’t have a decent QB, nothing else matters anyway.

McCluster is a good player. He looked like a different player the last 3 games of last year after “Douche Haley: was fired. Some of the plays he made changed games and helped the Chiefs win. Hopefully he can continue doing what he did the last 3 games of last year.

That is pretty sneaky how you called them the Chefs in that last paragraph Florio…very nice.

This guy is a bust, why teams keep drafting these gimmick/hybrid players is beyond me. Ted Ginn, Pat White, Dexter McCluster… All are the same player and I’m surprised everyone but White is still in the NFL.

He might make a good decoy on some plays, but he’s way too fragile to actually contribute much else.

The guy makes a good hair statement and that’s about it.

This isn’t news, and neither was the piece about him playing WR at OTAs. He’s a jack of all trades, master of none. He isn’t fighting for a roster spot. He’s a good, change of pace player who will probably never generate amazing stats.

He is a very useful player. He’s not starter worthy at RB or WR, but he will find a way to generate offense on the field in the right plays. Kind of like Danny Woodhead, except more athletic.

He ran a kickoff back in his game and ever since then the fans have thought he was a star only problem is he isn’t. Very average and living on hype.
