    Watched him for the Eagles on several occasions last year. Wasn't impressed and got toasted a few times. I'll pass.

    Leon is gone. We've already brought in Jacoby Ford, who is a better returner than him; Leon shouldn't of even played a single snap at RB last year. We've also brough in Jacoby Ford and Ted Ginn for interviews, we're finding a new return man.

    Greene should be gone. He wasn't awful last year, but didn't do anything special and makes a decent chunk of change. Hoping we let him go and pickup a FA RB... i'd really love Ingram.

    I'm then hoping that McCluster stays, but goes back to WR full-time.

    RB depth: FA - Sankey - Andrews/Seastrunk/late draftpick

    I would be fine with McCluster going back to full-time WR, I thought he offered very little in the running department.

    Agreed, he does best in open space. Wouldn't mind having him as our 4th WR and maybe see 1-3 carries at RB a game.

    I wouldn't mind seeing him getting jets every now and then. Hopefully, Sankey can become a complete back rushing, catching, and blocking. It makes us a little less predictable.

    My problem is, I don't think our return problem are the returners, but rather who is blocking for them. McCluster is a Pro Bowl returner who had no where to go most of the time. Our ST unit was bad...yet another coach who isn't being held responsible for his unit's play.

    I think if we bring in another returner, it will be more of the same.

    McCluster is a mismatch player who's very quick but not too fast. He's more of a Amendola type player who does well in space....especially against defenders who are not that quick. When you run him up the A gap, he's not exactly in a lot of space. His forte is catching passes out of the backfield or running option routes from the slot or some screen passes. We did not put him in a lot of positions for him to utilize his strengths.

    Greene SAVES us about 2.5Mil in cap to cut him.
    McCluster COSTS us about 650k in cap to cut him.

    I don't think Webster will cut McCluster.

    I wonder what Orakpo will get in free agency? He's 28 and hasn't played a full season since 2011 (15 games in '13 though). When healthy he's a pro-bowl caliber OLB, but he's a huge risk with his injury past.
