Malcolm Kelly yard and touchdown expectations & predictions

[SBXVII]

I also like this kid and hope he makes the squad. Maybe taking Thrash's spot. He would be a nice compliment along with Kelly and Thomas for the future.

Question: Hey Gary, I am an avid Redskins fan and I am interested in our draft pick Marko Mitchell. He seems to be very promising. What is his 40 time? And do you think that he will be able to make the roster?

Gary: I spoke with Mitchell last week and came away impressed. At Nevada, he was regarded as a big-play receiver. Mitchell frequently ran deep routes and in 2007 finished with a remarkable 21.3 yards-per-catch average. He has above average speed; he reportedly ran a 4.47 in the 40 at the NFL Scouting Combine. With the Redskins, Mitchell must learn short passing routes associated with the West Coast offense. If he can master the offense in short period of time, I would say he has a very good chance at making the roster.
