I don't get the vitriol over him. Is he a superstar? No. Was he a disappointment? Yeah, somewhat.

But he can help us. He's an insurance policy. He helped us beat SD which was a CRITICAL W that helped us win the division last year. He also helped on several huge plays in the SB.

I am late to this thread lol.  Mecole, or as I've called him Mehcole, he does have a place and a purpose.  I swear to god I was expecting him to drop that pass in the Super Bowl, but anyways...  If he's a cheap contract #4 WR, that fits him, and I'm ok with that.  A couple years ago when he was getting a lot more run at the top of the depth chart he was pretty much dogshit.  Let him be a role player at a minimal contract and he's not a bad signing.  That said, for the love of all that's holy, I don't ever want to see another jet sweep to him.  4th option in the progression, absolutely, because his speed puts pressure on a defense, especially against a nickle or dime back.
