Re: How long do you keep Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly if they don't produce?

By that time they should be producing, so the issue will be moot hopefully. I just hope Kelly gets healthy and stays that way unlike Taylor Jacobs, a total waste of cap space.
About 10 minutes sitting on a conference call while surfing NFL.com. That's the funny thing, people are so quick to complain about things without any realistic perspective. It took no time to gain some comparisons to successful vets and show that 1st year production means zip as a career predictor.

Sure they were a disappointment, but they were rookies, with a rookie head coach, rookie play caller and a QB without experience in the system, what the hell did people expect?

As to the comment about Michigan State WR, didn't Plaxico go there?

As to the comment about their draft status, when did draft position become commensurate to production? Since Marques Colston was a 7th rounder should that be the standard for all rookie WR?
