Redskins Insider - Kelly encouraged by conversation with Shanahan

This sounds pretty exciting, I'm hoping it will show on the field when it counts..

Shanahan: Malcolm we're going to draft your college QB.

Malcolm: Really, man that makes me feel like laying down a track or sumthin

Shanahan: ........?

"He told me he wants to put me on those types of situations where I can take advantage of my size. And then he just started talking about my hands. He said, 'We're going to find ways to get you the ball.' He told me he's going to find ways to show specifically what I can do.

"That was something I haven't even heard before in my two years here. And it was coming from a guy who I know has went out and won championships, and a guy who has had playmakers at every position. That's one thing that he knows how to do - he finds ways to get his playmakers the ball. Looking at our talent level, he said he's going to be able to use all the young guys. It was real encouraging."

Thanks Mr. Hixon.
