can maclin return punts as well as kicks? Or can he at least catch them? If so he saves us a few TOs a year.

Also my memory is a little fuzzy on how often we lined up Walter in the slot this year. I remember Anderson there on lots of 3 and 4 WR sets, but seem to remember Walter almost exclusively on the outside. AJ was also in the slot a some, but I wouldn't want him there all the time.

The reason I ask is just curiosity about how we fit the three together, because I feel like Walter was very effective as a deep threat, ran great routes, and was a fantastic blocker. If I am going to have 3 good WRs I want one to be a true slot guy and I don't think any of those three are. Additionally I don't know that Maclin helps us in the red zone which is the only place our offense struggled. I might prefer a TE who could work the middle of the field and could help on the goal line. Do any TEs fit this bill?
