Is WR Maclin Going to be a Bust? [Split Thread]

Might be a stretch here, but is he the same type of electric athlete in college similiar to Reggie Bush?

Er, note to Mike, Roy P and others in the dynasty league... my distaste for Maclin in no way removes him from my board. Ginn in fact is still a valuable asset, especially with his return yardage. /fantasyfootballmisdirection

Tough to compare Maclin and Bush since they lined up at different positions, but I can see similarities in how they run. Maclin did well out of the backfield; Bush is obviously a talented receiver. I have a similarly hard time evaluating/slotting Percy Harvin (/said without declaring where he is on my fantasy draft board either, of course).
