Then that cues the defense what the play is.

No it doesn't.

Good point! Not really sure about that.

They could line him up as a slot WR though. He can catch and make people miss.

Nope - he's never had great hands.

Again, I'm not talking about a difference maker here. I'm talking about someone you put out there for maybe 15 snaps/gm. Probably more like 10. Give Clyde 35-40 snaps, Williams 15-20 and Lindsay around 10-15. Figure 65-70 snaps/gm most games if you're moving the ball okay.

And in those 10-15 snaps you use motion, etc... to try to freeze defenders (who again, aren't blitzing Mahomes anyway these days) and run some misdirection stuff to get him out on the edges.

His speed could absolutely be useful - just take him for what he is (purely a scat-back) and not for what he's not (any sort of all-purpose weapon or potential bellcow).

Why Not?

It’s uncanny. I’m shocked many here don’t want to sign Rae Carruth.

Dude is averaging 2.6 YPC.

I think the CP Lexicon comes into play here. http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=310447

Several items may apply but these two seem close:
NFL Caliber Talent: Something KC does not have, especially at 'key' positions, that all other NFL Franchises are teeming with.

Kick the Tires: An expression used by geniouses who have the increbile idea to bring EVERY SINGLE player that gets cut, waived, or has played a single down in the NFL or even looked strong stocking shelves at home depot in for a look and a tryout with the Chiefs. No one has ever thought of that before.

I like Lindsay and think he can probably have his pick from a few options at this point. It's not like he just went to HOU and forgot how to play.

Two 1k yard seasons and 16 rushing TDs in his first 2 seasons with Denver, then Gordon comes in and his production is cut in half on yards. Kid goes from catching 35 each of those first 2 years to 7 with Gordon.

Then, he moves on to HOU and that was never an ideal situation.

I could see him being a very nice addition for the Patriots, Chiefs, Packers, Bills, Cardinals, Titans... even the Bucs. Why wouldn't any of those teams want to add his upside at this point in the season? And, they can get him cheap.

Maybe he'll give Josh Gordon a run for his money at production.

Pass unless an injury occurs.

Good player, kind of a misfit toy.

Very good inside zone runner who is tiny.

He also has limited versatility in the passing game.

So teams that will run him inside against light boxes (Chiefs?) could benefit but don't think he's something he's not.
