Update: Malcolm Kelly To Be Placed On IR

CRedskinsRule · 08-30-2010, 04:34 PM

At this point, if he had turned out a good season, it would have been a bonus, but instead it is time to move on. I could see IR, for a year, just to see if it makes a difference, but as Colt found out, it's not a safe haven for wannabees

Devin Thomas, I'm looking at you, man. Please step up.

It will speak volumes if we end up starting Joey Galloway all season long. DT needs to step up big time, or WR should be a very top offseason priority.

Hopefully Banks and/or Austin will add some of those twitchy quicks to our offense that guys like Darren Sproles and Josh Cribbs have brought to theirs.

I thought Drew Brees was on the cover of Madden 11

Sorry to see he is injured again. Hopefully he can heal and find good fortune elsewhere.

DynamiteRave · 08-30-2010, 04:55 PM

Well that was a waste of a draft pick, eh?

Oh, and every team can point to wasted 2nd round picks in their draft history. 2nds are never a lock.

Bottom line is we've got very little production from Thomas and Kelly. Thomas can't catch and can't get the mental side down and Kelly can't consistently stay healthy. Time to move on.

Relax grown ups are in charge.

SouperMeister · 08-30-2010, 05:12 PM

I said WTF the moment we wasted a pick on Kelly. Of the 10 selections made in the 2008 draft, we have gotten very little performance. Thanks Vinny.

IMO MS saw promise in MK why would you keep him so long with an injury, I think MS said it was the coaching that held these guys back let me see what I can do with them. Through out the OTA's & practices he saw promise but the injury messed everything up. If the FO says move on I'm with it.

Really, what we need is for someone to plant some weed in his car. He gets pulled over, caught with possession of marijuana, gets a 4 week suspension from Goodell, heals his hamstring, and he's back in time for the Packers in Week 5

Then pulls his hamstring again.

Seems to me you've given it some thought.

BREAKING NEWS: Malcolm will be cut on Tuesday..j/k.

I feel bad for the him...it sucks but this is business. I hope the Skins cut him lose now and let him get a chance to catch on with another team.

We could've had Ray Rice with that pick. As I've said before, Kelly is the second coming of Taylor Jacobs. Both excellent college players, but neither tough enough to play the game at this level.

Pardon the pun but how do you ecpect him to do that when he cannot stay on the field? I do not think that any team will take a chance on him until he can prove that he is healthy.
