D.C. Sports Bog - Second-Year Receiver Report Card



I didn't see any grades so ill go


Malcolm Kelly - B

Fred Davis - D

Devin Thomas - C

[irish]

These guys didnt do much to impress me.

Eh, Thomas and Kelly played every snap they were supposed to, Kelly had a good grab. The critical drops were from other receivers. Kelly did have one play where he ran the route just short of the sticks, that will kill our offense too
but I was happy with them overall, say B's

Fred Davis. Fumbles give him an F. Sorry.

[SouperMeister]

Better that Davis becomes more aware of ball protection during pre-season than fumbling in a big game. I would have liked to see Jason take a shot further downfield to Thomas at some point. Overall, I thought the young receivers did OK, Davis fumbling aside.

How in the hell can you give someone a grade right now? It's typical to hand out grades at the end of the year, not before it's even started.

FYI Davis matched Kelly's year one production in one game...fumbles or not. It is too soon to say anything about these guys.

Yes, but they haven't taken any yet. It's like getting a grade for answering a question wrong in an open discussion durring class.

Not to hard of a concept to grab. Look at the performance and tell us what u think.

Got a tweet during the game that Kelly went up for a high pass and came down with it, was it really a nice catch? What was DT's catch like?

Kelly reached high and snatched the ball out of the air. It was good to see. Kind of a small glimpse of what his size can do for us.

Yeah 53 I hope we see more of that. If Kelly stays healthy I feel like he'll start opposite Moss come opening day.

It was a very nice catch...but doesn't make up for running a 5 yard pattern on 3rd and 6...

I think Kelly and Thomas will be big contributors to the offense this year, as will Fred Davis (fumbles aside).

Yeah, Kelly acknowledged he didn't get enough depth on the pattern but the more he plays the better he'll get. I agree. I think all 3 will contribute this year.

All he did was reach up and pull down a ball like anyone who has played WR should do. None of them did anything to stand out last night but that true for the most of the team. I think this thread might have been better after a few more games.

It was a little more than that. He didn't hesitate or protect his body. He fully extended while going across the middle. He snagged the ball with 2 hands out of mid air, something Hagans failed to do i might add. He had a guy covering him, and Jason led him so that the defender couldn't get it. It was an excellent catch and really the first real glimpse of what his potential could be. In my opinion
