Re: Devin Hester or Dexter Mccluster

I don't want to see us spend money on a returner.I want us to find one in the draft.

You won't find a Hester!I think he'll take a one year deal to play in New Orleans.

Re: Devin Hester or Dexter Mccluster

So many kicks are going out the back of the end of end zone and add that to a Special Team that cant cover for toffee spending money on a returner is a waste.
Let the CB and WR battle it iut in camp.

Re: Devin Hester or Dexter Mccluster

This team needs a real returner...Not a project..If you have a defense that get as many 3 and outs as we got...On days like Saturday..I wish we had a True Return man..

Pass on Oher, Hester, McCluster - on the latter, let's get younger with players who are versatile and not limited to a handful of plays per game...

Re: Devin Hester or Dexter Mccluster

Here's the thing sometimes a player on his way out will play well in a fresh start. Remember Sharper? He was exceptional in 09, and people were saying he was over the hill. Hester playing in a dome and on a new team where he will learn new patterns and defenses having to account for that, he would get away with it for one year. What people don't realize is the learning curve is after the first year, todays defenses are thrown off by new players and new schemes. Then in the offseason, they study it up and thats where the falloff starts. Hester being in a new place could help him play better, not to mention he would also get to eat different food.

The most glaring needs in the draft is WR, C, RT, and CB. Outside of those, its best to find the lesser pieces in FA. I wouldnt want to waste a draft pick on a kick returner over something more important. Kick returning shouldnt be that big of a need and its worth taking a chance on with someone that has a good history with it.
