    Great signing. Totally unexpected. I love the idea of using him as a utility guy being moved around the offense , kick returning , gadget plays , it just opens so many doors. Perhaps this means we are genuinely going to have a playbook this year and finally put paid to run , run , screen , punt.

    His overall contract is a bit much, but how is $4.5mil too much guaranteed money?

    If he sucks and doesn't work out we could probably cut him after a season or two and be fine.

    I like the signing, love his versatility. I think he'll be especially big for Jake to make some quick, easy throws.

    But we better have a better plan at RB than this.

    a lot of you guys fail to understand the fact the the Salary Cap increasing dramatically + Set in stone cheap rookie contracts = higher FA contracts.

    what McCluster got is NOT a lot of money.

    Sproles would probably have costed a lot more money, glad to get one of the holes we had covered, now we can concentrate on defense!
    We should go after a de/lb, then we can get rb in the draft and we can hit up the super bowl next year.

    Me thinks you guys are more excited that we signed someone on the first day than you are about McCluster. 2200 offensive yards and six combined rushing/receiving TDs in four years ain't nothing to be excited about on offense.

    He's a good returner, although he never did it full-time at KC(hence we signed Washington), but you don't pay a guy like this that kind of money.

    Danny Woodhead has a higher YPR and YPC in his career and he signed a 2-year $3.5 million deal last year.

    Once again, the Titans get bamboozled in free agency.
