The thing about Kelly is Mike Shanahan allowed him to go to IR in 2010. But in the 2011 preseason/training camp Malcolm Kelly showed no fight, no tenacity, and no heart and so he was let go. What a waste.

I'm so glad Cerratto isn't in Washington to make personnel decisions anymore.

Proof? I think he got injured again in 2011. That's a far cry from what you're suggesting. Not trying to detract from your point, which is that we never should've drafted him in the first place, but all indications were that he was a great kid whose heart was in the right place, but he just couldn't get on the field.

I suppose I'm being a little too critical of Kelly because I had high expectations of him. When Art Monk couldn't compete in the 1982 playoffs because of a broken toe, that was a legitimate injury. Kelly had his chances. If he really wanted to push at it, he could have battled through whatever injury he had. But as I said in my earlier post, Kelly had no testicular fortitude. He had no fight in him whatsoever. The fact that he is still a free agent shows the guy has nothing but quit in him.

Or maybe teams don't want to take a risk for an unproven talent with a big medical risk?
