Pros: Shifty and elusive, McCluster fits the profile of a slot receiver, which is where he'll see most of his work. Offensive coordinator Charlie Weis' offense features the dink-and-dunk passing game that should suit McCluster. The rook has impressed early in camp.

Cons: He has yet to take a professional snap, so he's still somewhat of an unknown in a regular game. Can his small frame hold up? Touchdowns might be a problem - Dwayne Bowe, Jamaal Charles and Thomas Jones could all receive the red zone looks ahead of him.

Fantasy tip: McCluster has definite sleeper potential, especially in PPR setups. You might have to jump early, since he has been a bit of a training camp darling, but he's worth taking once the rounds hit double digits as a No. 4 PPR wideout.
