Here is a tough one. Vickers improved a lot and has shown he is a very good lead blocker and an all around FB. McClain was a starter in '08 and moved to lead blocker in '09. I don't think there is a wrong choice, but I am not sure on who I'd chose right now.

Hines I thought you were better than this... maybe we can discuss this in a couple of years. I do like Frank the tank though

Vickers doesn't give much as a ball carrier/receiver unfortunately, but he is like having a guard in the backfield as a blocker and being that this is the AFC North team, we'll have great backs so I'd rather have the superior blocker in my fullback

McClain is a better overall "weapon" than Vickers. He's a better pass catcher and runner, however, I think Vickers is the better pure blocker, but McClain's no slouch at blocker either.
I voted McClain, he's more effective in more ways.

I voted McClain just because he brings more to the table then Vickers.

Pretty much this, and I'm a Ravens fan.

McClain was drafted because of his blocking. Finding out he had good feet was a pleasant surprise for the Ravens. He is the best all around.

I agree with with all you guys, McClain is good all around. I wouldn't cry if I had Vickers though. Both are great at what they do and can add a lot to a team.
