Long story short, Erickson isn't explosive enough, nor does he have the long speed to be an above average return guy with the new rules. He doesn't have the burst that it will take to find holes now in my opinion.
Same thing was said about BScott and aside from Adam Jones, he was our best returner since Tremaine Mack.
Cribbs was never the fastest, nor was Adam Jones and they are among the best return men ever; speed is overrated, sometimes.
