I am partial to Marlon Humphrey myself, but I could be swayed towards Bradley Sylve or Calvin Ridley with some convincing.

This should be the biggest position battle going into this week IMO. Even Cyrus fumbled a kick return. Thankfully he was able to still get the touchback. I think we give too much grace for fumbling, and it bites us in the arse. (See Christion Jones last year). We have a lot of talented young players, and I would love to see one of them take control.

on kickoffs just down the frigging ball if it's in the end zone....heck, that's an automatic 25 yard return.

True. The one thing I worry about if that were our strategy would be slightly short kicks (ones that land around the 8.) I could see opposing teams purposefully trying to land it at the ten.

I think we have all the talent in the world in terms of speedy guys with good hands that we are wasting when we allow a starter to keep his job despite the fact that he hasn't shown competence in that area.

Over half of Marlon Humphrey's high school highlight reel was punt/kick returns. I'd love to see some of that electricity transferred to our return game. Remember how an Arenas return would pump up the energy of the team?

Ridley or Tony Brown, since he's a track guy and they usually make great returnmen.
