I've read a few posters claiming Kelly is the safe bet at 11.
Why do people seem to think Malcom Kelly is a safe bet at all much less a safe bet at 11? His highlight reel is good but I wouldn't look at it and say he's a safe bet.
There is not that big a difference in the top 3-4 WR's this year yet everyone has us getting Kelly @ 11 and the rest of the field(not Jackson since he should be off of our radar) comes off the board in the mid 20's. Thats a bit strange, in fact it sounds like a reach. If we trade down and grab one of these guys then I'd be okay with that but If we draft Kelly at 11 I think it might be in prelude to letting Evans walk. I don't see the Buffalo Bills, who are a defensive, run first type club having two high priced guys at WR. If Kelly really is the man then we'll have a tough situation in 3 years. Financially keeping him and Evans is going to be hard.
I just don't think a #2 receiver is that important that we should use the 11th pick. We drafted Evans at 11 and he's our #1 guy, does it really make sense to get a second receiver at the same position? especially one that is rated lower then Evans was. WR is a need but on this team I don't think WR is as important as some would like to think.
