Malcolm Kelly Injured During Hell Week

NYCskinfan82 · 07-30-2010, 05:36 PM

I think one of the reasons Galloway & Williams are ahead of MK & DT is cause that's were they are right now & when they watch film they will see how the routes are supposed to be ran.

HTTR.

It is really disappointing about Devin and Malcolm -- I understand that to an extent there is nothing you can do about injuries but it just seems like from the start, if it's not one thing, it's another. They came in with poor conditioning, bad work ethic, injuries piling on injuries. I wouldn't mind considering this a make or break year and cutting ties with either unless they show at least a 600-700 yard season.

Unless Galloway's running a 5.0 and huffing and puffing worse than Andre Smith, I do not understand the amount of hyperventilating people are doing just because he's with the first team. By all accounts, he still hasn't lost his speed just yet.

It's extremely early, nothing to be getting upset about

Again, another lingering injury ruins his career. With McNabb here, this is it for him for excuses....

And yes, keep us updated GMScud.

Taylor Jacobs revisited anyone?

I agree rb. I know it is only a hammy, but damn, not a good way to start. The guy already is a victim of "arrested development" because he was oft injured when we first got him. If he misses a significant amount of time this season I say we cut our losses.

Extremely early..? We are in training camp with 13 days until pre-season and then less than a month before Week 1 vs. dallas.

Upset no, but concerned/disappointed YES. We have a 38 year old WR in Galloway and Vet. Williams who has been out of the league for several seasons and they have unseated to this point two young bucks going on there third year in the NFL that haven't proven much of anything and are clearly behind again and once again injury concerns. This is alarming.

WR is our weakest link right now IMO. We need to get this shored up before the bombs start flying.

Extremely early as in one and 1/2 days of camp in the books, yes.

Shanahan is simply sending an early message that all spots will be earned.

Kelly has the skills to play in the NFL. Unfortunately his nickname is Mr. Glass so I'm not sure he can survive in the league either.

Taylor Jacobs was Mr. Glass also. Guy could never stay healthy. Not too many Spartans cut it in the NFL anymore. I am not sure why that is, but Thomas is just going along with the trend possibly. Both really need to step it up. If that La Canfora article is accurate Shanny might have some surprises in store for us if they don't.

very interesting about whats in the article about how Kelly and Thomas are both not locks to make the roster, and kelly could be cut pretty soon.

PA LEASE just like we were going to trade AH this offseason. JLC may have some connections but Adam Schefter he is not, especially when it comes to Redskins affairs. They have him blacklisted.

This is one guy that can't afford to not be out there competing.

exit0 · 07-31-2010, 12:04 PM

Kelly has always been injured it seems... college and pro. The only time I read about him in the press is when it's a hamstring thing. Always a hamstring... I doubt if he will ever be any kind of impact receiver when he can never stay 100% healthy.

CRedskinsRule · 07-31-2010, 12:13 PM

Well I have kinda given up on kelly.

skinsfan69 · 07-31-2010, 12:31 PM

Kelly's body is never going to make it through an NFL season. He's always nicked up and never plays. He get's hurt in practice, when there is no hitting. WTF??

HTTR.

One thing about Shanahan, he'll usually lean toward the veteran. Especially at this time of year, and especially if he's trying to motivate the younger players, establish a new culture, and set the precedent that everything must be earned.

There really isn't much to gain at this point from putting Galloway down the depth chart. Dude's like a 15 year veteran, he's not going to fall for those games or feel threatened that his starting job is in jeopardy. He knows what his purpose is here. DT, on the other hand. Here's a guy in his 3rd year still waiting to break out and now some 38-year old WR is threatening to knock him down the depth chart? That should push DT to go that extra mile and really earn that starting spot.
