Yeah Kelly doesn't seem like a wise pick where we sit today, however the '08 draft class overall looks less than stellar IMO (i know that's way too general to really back up but outside 2 good QBs, a few good WR/TE/RB, three o-lineman and a small group of defensive players like Mayo there's not a whole lot to have fallen in love w/ from last year). Still, as a franchise you've got to make strides w/ the hand your dealt and we don't look to have played our cards well in the '08 draft considering the opportunity cost of Thomas/Kelly if they're busts.
