The kickoff return has become almost a moot point in today's NFL. I don't see how investing significant draft capital on that position is anything a team would focus upon unless that person is also talented at their secondary position and other special teams duties.

As it stands, Homer is a talented 3rd down, change of pace back at worst, significant backup RB, and quality kick returner. I think we're fine there...as well as having Moore and Penny available to handle these duties, as well.

Kick and Punt returner's are very valuable, and IMHO, it helps them in their YAC as a receiver.

Also, there's times when field position, or a weakness found in opposing kick and punt units can be exploited.

Like the OP said, when there's multiple receivers with similar skill sets as a receiver, the one with more versatility is the better choice.
