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

10 catches, 154 yards, 0 TD
29 catches, 446 yards, 3 TD
20 catches, 309 yards, 2 TD
3 catches, 59 yards, 0 TD
35 catches, 520 yards, 4 TD
2 catches, 40 yards, 0 TD
14 catches, 186 yards, 0 TD
3 catches, 31 yards, 1 TD

If so, then you just released Steve Smith, Roddy White, Brandon Marshall, Vincent Jackson, Terrell Owens, Santana Moss, Derrick Mason and Donald Driver. That would be more than 1/3 of the top 15 WR in the league (statistically) from last year and 8 of the top 20. Even Vinny ain't that dumb.

Those are good stats for sure. Makes me feel better about Devin and Malcolm. I don't think anyone suggested we cut the cord with either of them right now though. IMO, unless 2009 is a total disaster for them stats-wise, they'll both be Redskins in 2010 as well.
