He's the #3 RB on the board I think and Mendenhall looks like a beast.

No. 2 slot is still up for grabs I think between Stewart and Mendenhall. Stewart is bigger so running 4.45 is just as impressive.

If I drafted McFadden, I'd be tempted to see what he could do as a WR...6'1", 215 with sub 4.30 speed and excellent hands.

I know, it's crazy, but with his smaller lower frame, he might last longer in the NFL as a WR than as a RB.

he will be a top 5 or top 10 pick, you dont really draft a tweener that high.

I could see it now in Martz's offense Andre Caldwell and Jason Hill starting, not this year of course.

How about Caldwell, Hill, and Royal?

That would be beautiful. Both Caldwell and Royal seem to catch EVERYTHING! And after all the drops last year, I'm putting a premium on WR's who can catch!

Stewart is my favorite RB of the class, he will be a better version of Steven Jackson in the NFL(not as tall though), IMO.

Reggie Bush?

And would you say he is working out up to his billing?

No one could ever live up to the billing he had.

That wasn't the point. You said you don't draft tweeners that high and I showed you that it has happened.

Btw, I'm not saying McFadden is a tweener, nor am I saying anyone would make him switch to WR. I simply said, with his size/speed/ability, if I were his head coach, I'd be tempted to move him there.

That was my only point.

Point is though, he has been relatively disappointing.

Im not too sure if GoFD was kidding about moving McFadden to WR but with the price that he will have, that would be incredibly foolish.
