Ray Rice was still on the board when Kelly was selected. Matt Millen may as well have been making our picks as bad as the 2008 draft turned out. Ten selections, and ZERO consistent starters. Thanks Vinny.
If we really wanted a RB during that draft, we could have gone with Rice or Jamaal Charles. Also, Chris Johnson, Felix Jones, and Rashard Mendenhall were available at the bottom of the first round.

No surprises so far. Not even Kelly's injury settlement.
Well, the McBride cut was surprising...since I didn't even know he was on the team
Now the McBride thing is funny as S**t.

Never underestimate the power of "but we already have stud running back _________, therefore overkill" logic.

I love Caveman and everything he's done here, but the writing is kind of on the wall for him. He's our 4th best TE and our starting FB is like 13 or 14 years younger than him.
I can not believe how long Sellers has played and at a very physically punishing position. It is amazing he has lasted as long as he has given how physical he plays. I wonder if he will be one of those guys that for unexplained reasons keeps a roster spot just for his special teams play?

Who will be this years Ade Jimoh - a player everyone thinks should be cut, but he sticks around year after year for no reason at all, other than that he must blackmailed a coach?
My vote is Kellen Clemmons. As useless as he is to us, i cant see us not going with 3 QBs.
I'm with you BHA! Reed Doughty is the answer!

The redskins also cut TE Joe Torchia, DB Dante Barnes, DB Tyrone Grant & OL Corey O'Daniel... To get down to the mandatory 80 man roster"

This makes one wonder if Kelly's heart and mind are actually set on seriously playing the game of football.

I was just going to say out of all the guys he drafted that year not one is contributing. Maybe Fred Davis is a little bit. Vinny Cerrato will never work in football again.
