"I think he's the colossal bust in this draft," said Baldinger, now an analyst for Fox, the NFL Network and Sporting News Radio. "He doesn't run with patience. He's a very incomplete back who tries to run you over. If he gets a crease, he can take it to the house. But he doesn't break tackles and he fumbles. I'm not impressed."
But Baldinger isn't the only one expressing doubt about McFadden.
"I can't believe how skinny his calves and his shins are," one scout said of McFadden. "It's almost scary. It's like a skinny wide receiver. At the running back position, you want a guy who's a little wider on his base. [McFadden] is built on top, but he's got a very skinny base. I think that's a little bit of a concern."

Baldinger is an idiot. Write that one down.
On another note, scouts who choose to remain unanimous are a bunch of vagi's.
