Chiefs draft WR Dexter McCluster in 2nd round

The Chiefs drafted wide receiver Dexter McCluster out of Mississippi with their second round pick.

 

The Chiefs ignored a perceived need along the offensive line and added a dynamic playmaker instead

 

While McCluster may not have elite speed, he has outstanding quickness and a burst that makes him a terror in the open field, runs good routes and has excellent hands.

 

McCluster got a lot of all purpose yardage as a combination running back/receiver in Mississippi’s offense. He has had ball security issues over the years and needs to prove he can avoid turnovers if he wants to prove a player his size can contribute.

 

He has the speed to turn a short dump off pass into a long touchdown with just a single missed tackle..

 

With the skills to be a factor as a runner or receiver, McCluster's a matchup nightmare who figures to be a big part of Todd Haley's game plan in 2010.

I am a big McCluster fan but I wish he would have went to a different team.
