Update: Malcolm Kelly To Be Placed On IR

[GusFrerotte]

True, but I am talking about after this season. I know him on IR automatically takes him off the 53 man roster. I rather us go for a draftee Wr than him next season is what I am talking about. With our luck Malcolm will do great in the next preseason and have his knee blowout in game 1 or 2. Poor dude is cursed. I am for giving him a chance, but damn, talk about bad karma. With Santana getting up there, and Joey ready to retire, we need to draft some of these studs next 2 seasons. I would draft one and see if we can get another undrafted rook.

Bringing him back next year doesn't hurt. I doubt he will be counted on for much, anything he does will be a bonus.

[GusFrerotte]

I will hope he comes back gangbusters. Sort of weird they would go through all the trouble. It is like Taylor Jacobs, but not as bad. Kelly did see more action than Taylor.

He, like anyone else, should get a shot to prove himself. He might not make it that long, hell we can cut him at any time. Him still being around doesn't keep us from making any move at the position.

I doubt we are not going to draft a WR simply because Kelly is on IR. It's a simple decision to put him there, all it does is cost DS Kelly's base pay this year. Then next year, MS/BA will draft one or more receiver's, and the best man wins. Don't get why his presence would affect draft strategy at all. (And I don't think Kelly got on MS' good side with this lingering injury, some of MS' comments sure sounded like Kelly just needed to suck it up and play through it.)

we should have signed lebron james when we had the chance

I seriously doubt Kelly will ever play a game for the Skins again. No great loss IMO. Shanny and Bruce will probably have to make WR priority number 1 in the offseason, but seriously hoping Armstrong or Thomas can breakout.

[los panda]

i think thomas will emerge this year*

*if he gets plenty of playing time

[Longtimefan]

I think the team chose to IR Kelly in hopes of eventually getting some return on their investment. He's been paid approx. $3.2 mil over the last two years for a grand total of 28 receptions for 365 yds.

With the start of the 2011 season possibly being delayed, he'll have ample time to recover in hopes he can return healthy and remain that way.

I can't think of one thing McNabb does better than Rivers. Throw deep? Nah.

What has Rivers done exactly in the league? If you want to rely on stats over the last few years I would say McNabb is indeed a better deep ball thrower.

Let's give Rivers some time to earn all the accolades.

Never said Kelly would affect draft strategy. Just said since since there are many stud Wrs next draft why not just drop him. Getting a WR I am sure is one of the needs on the draft wish list for 2011 or 2012.

Why throw an option away when you don't know where you'll be drafting, other positions on our team becoming bigger needs, WRs from college getting hurt, etc
