George B. McClellan .
McClellan
Most of them, depending on your perspective. The one generally considered overly cautious is General McClellan, who led the entire Union Army in late 1861 and early 1862. Even with extreme superior numbers in men, cannon, and supplies he did not attack South for months. When he finally did, he moved south around Richmond and landed on the James peninsula, then slowed his assault as he believed his force was outnumbered 2 to 1. He was eventually relieved of command after the debacle of the Seven Days Campaign and his terrible inactivity.
George McClellan was on the Union side during the American Civil War. He served as a general in the Union Army and was appointed as the commander of the Army of the Potomac. Although he had notable successes, his leadership was also criticized for being overly cautious. He played a significant role in the early years of the war before being relieved of command in 1862.
George McClellan was the general before Grant. After the battle of Richmond, Lincoln accused him of having the slows due to the fact that he was overly conservative and cautious. He did not pursue the southern retreat after the battle, a move which was considered by many a prolonging of the war. His decisions caused him to loose his position as general to Grant, a drunkard who was willing to take "necessary risks".
His despatches to Lincoln reveal that he was all talk, no action - he promised too much. Also he was too inclined to believe exaggerated estimates of enemy numbers, and this made him even more cautious.

Union general Geoge Mcellen, after the battle of antietam, he failed to pursue Lees army, allowing them to escape. He was fired for this
He was a strict and organized man. Although sometimes, he was overly cautious, and mistakes led him to get frustrated very quickly.
A synonym for paranoid is extra suspicious or overly cautious.
Well a professional body piercer would need to look to see what you have to work with, but in general there should be no overly reason why it can't be done.
Yes he definitely is...he is a bit too tough, overly-cautious and paranoid but good at heart.
General George McClellan's caution and hesitance to aggressively pursue Confederate forces after the Battle of Antietam allowed General Robert E. Lee to regroup and strengthen his army. McClellan's delays in mobilizing and making decisive attacks provided Lee the opportunity to launch an offensive into Northern Virginia. This culminated in the Second Battle of Bull Run in August 1862, where Lee's forces defeated the Union troops, showcasing the consequences of McClellan's overly cautious approach to command.
Lincoln did replace General McClellan. However, he called upon General Ambrose Burnside rather than General Sherman. President Lincoln had almost nothing but trouble out of McClellan who had enjoyed one of the first Union successes of the war in a minor local affair on the Ohio River, and so was brought east to take command of the Army of the Potomac following the disaster of the First Battle of Bull Run. McClellan was good at one thing: training soldiers, but in other military functions, he was incompetent, insolent, and overly cautious: to the point of insubordination. Some, and especially Lincoln, felt that his slow pace was deliberate and designed to needle the president. Further, he had demonstrated his disrespect for the president in several incidents so, after the mid-term elections, Lincoln relieved him of command.

General Omar Bradley had a mixed opinion of General Montgomery. He admired Montgomery's military skill and leadership during World War II, particularly in the North African and Italian campaigns. However, Bradley also criticized Montgomery for being overly cautious and slow in advancing, which sometimes hindered the overall progress of Allied operations.
