Which is why we should have taken Jonathan Taylor instead! I was pounding the drum for him all the way to the draft! I was excited about CEH ONLY because he is from LSU - that ONLY! He is a bust and we screwed up on drafting him. He IS NOT going to GROW - he is what he is - a complete BUST! We pissed away a first round pick on HOPE and lost. Will never believe in him and cannot wait for us to move on from him. I do not think I will be eating any crow on this one. Not a Ryan Leaf pick but still, Chiefs lost on this one big time.

CEH is going to have a breakout type year. This will be the best OL he's EVER been behind in his career. He'll average about 75 yards/game for the first 6 weeks or so until JuJu/Skyy gets somewhat comfortable in the offense, then 'poof' Clyde will suddenly average 100+/game.

I will say CEH is far from a bust. He had 1,100 yards from scrimmage and five TD’s his rookie year in 13 games. Last year, he only played in 10 games, and put up over 600+ yards from scrimmage and 6 TD’s. A bust is Breeland Speaks. A bust is Trezelle Jenkins. Jon Baldwin. Ryan Sims. It’s all about finding a way to stay healthy for CEH. |

Clyde is only 23 years and has flashed brilliance. Priest Holmes was 28 years old before he suited up for the Chiefs. It's only the beginning for Clyde.

Imagine defending this guy..
In probably the most RB friendly team in the league, I can't tell if this dude is any better than Darrel Williams and Jerick McKinnon. That tells you everything you need to know. |

It’s amazing how people hate the guy so much that they don’t want to acknowledge that context. |

The biggest problem with Clyde is that he just can't get or stay healthy.
He didn't look like the same player last season as he did his last year at LSU, or even his rookie year before he got hurt. Knee, hip, gallbladder, all of it; I feel for the kid. But you can't make the club from the tub. Will he be and can he stay healthy this season? Maybe, but I'm not holding my breath. |

He was running behind arguably the worst run blocking OL in football. And has somebody has pointed out, his production was still fairly good his rookie year considering that. |

I've yet to see him look consistently explosive and confident in his running with us as he did in that LSU highlight package. He's had his games and moments where he's flashed the ability, but he needs to do it every game, ever touch he gets.
Gallbladder surgery is a bigger deal than people realize, and for an athlete I can imagine it would be a total hinderance. This is his year to prove it, and I'll pull for him to show it. |

When Lil Chiefy himself says he won't hold his breath for a breakout year, you know a guy's been a disappointment. |

I just can't separate the 1st round pick from this guy's name. Given on-the-field production versus what we gave up to get them, he's easily the worst running back we've had in like 20 years.
Guys like Spencer Ware, Charcandrick West and Damien Williams came here off the trash heap and produced at a higher level. People here think Darrel Williams sucks but at least that ****er was undrafted. |
