    If Kelly has a good pro day, I'd have no problem taking him with #6 if McFadden and Gholston are both gone and we can't trade down. He reminds me a lot of Plaxico, which is just the type of reciever we need. I think Sweed's the better prospect though.

    It's never a good sign to see someone fumble the ball in their own highlight reel. He definitely looks like he's got the combination of size, speed and hands that you want, though. That's something to think about.

    A bit of a reach at 6, and a lot of people have Sweed over him.

    Assuming DMAC falls to us at six. What about us trading picks with detroit plus williams and then drafting a cb with the pick we got from them. It might work seeing that they need a rb. Then we have a tall fast wr, plus he's proven. I think that would be great for our offense. And we would get a quality db with the 15th pick. If this were to happen it would instantly give us a top offense with improvements we made along the line and our defense would also be very good with two good dbs.

    WRs are so unpredictable. Them and QBs I'd never draft if it were up to me.

    I would not mind Kelly, he is a very talented reciever. If we are not going to extend Coles's contract than WR is a very big need position.

    As far as Kelly being a reach, I don't think so. Usually WR's are rated fairly low by Kiper and other Draft experts, but on draft day are selected much higher. See Reggie Williams, Troy Williamson, Ted Ginn, etc.

    I read thar Kelly's biggest problem is he "disapears" some times. but Sweed has a wrist injury I'd prefer the healthy one over the "disapearing" one

    Those videos though were against week teams =\

    I do think he's a great player, I just don't see him being drafted at #6. Maybe if we trade back but I really am hoping for DMC.

    At this point I'm ready to draft him just to shut Coles up. I love Coles, but at this point the franchise and fans owe him nothing. It would be different if he hadn't played in Washington, then he'd be a number on the wall next to Chrebet.

    In his defense, if you're talking about the play against Miami, he was in the end zone when the ball was knocked out.

    As far as Kelly, I'd love to see the Jets find a way to take him, and I think he's one of the top targets if (hopefully when) they trade down.

    Sweed is the best WR in the draft...if we are talking WR at #6, he should be it.

    It was something directed more at the person that put together the highlight reel than Kelly himself. He definitely looks really fluid in his movements on the field, which is a really good thing.
