Le'Ron McClain
It's a fantasy football post, but it has a quote from Cam Cameron I haven't seen mentioned here yet.
"You know, I’ve read that everybody thinks we’ve moved him back to fullback and I’m not sure where that came from," Cameron said. "He’s a running back. That’s the way I view him. To me, Lorenzo Neal is a fullback, and a great one. Le’Ron, to me, and I felt like this when I saw him in college, is a potential running back. He’s also a guy that can play fullback, play tailback, and actually we’re going to use him a little bit at tight end this year."
This is just a reassurance that we'll be seeing a familiar running scheme, regardless of what we've heard about McClain moving to Full Back.
I'm also wondering if his statement about having McClain play a little tight end is telling of Cameron's opinion of the health and depth of our tight ends.

We still need a real fullback
Without someone like Neal lead-blocking, McClain (or any north and south power runner) will not be nearly as effective. We saw it with Sam Gash, we saw it with alan Riard, and we saw it with Loreno Neal – a mauling lead bloker makes all the differene.
They say the empty can rattles the most...
But now, with a better o-line...
…we don’t need to take another tight end or wide rece3iver off the field to put another player in the backfield. Cam and Harbaugh now feel that our o-line and TE’s can open the holes for the three headed running attack to blast through without the neede of a FB, be it L. Neal or someone else. Don’t be fooled too much w/ the Ravens saying that McClain will be a strict FB, as he’ll stick get the rock 8-10 times at least, maybe more. It all depends on the success and health of both Willis and Ray Rice.
