    Seriously, though. While it's a long shot, he has the tools to be something special. The question is whether he's finally got his mental shit together.

    This. You're an SEC guy (Hogs), and I'm sure you've watched his many games. He can be a Jekyll or Hyde. We can all hope we get the good side of Kelly.

    If Lynch becomes starter this year, it is possible Simien gets dealt and Kelly becomes backup.

    If not Kelley will be backup next year.

    I don't know that he will ever be starter, but who knows.

    Yeah as Kelly could be the backup if Paxton is the starter.

    Or that if Trevor is the starter, Paxton will be #2 again.

    I just changed my adopted Bronco to Chad Kelly (I still hadn't changed from Oz since his rookie year) because I like pulling for the underdog.

    Kelly has a chance if he has grown up and depending on his work ethic. But not for a while, IMO. Awful lot of raw talent there . . . very raw.

    Week One, 2019, for another NFL team. After he's goes all Matt Flynn in garbage time for the Defending Super Bowl Champion Denver Broncos and those Broncos parlay that potential into a Top 10 '19 draft choice. Which they use on NT Dexter Lawrence or OT Greg Little.

    Plan accordingly.

    Sign Garbage Minshew.

    Draft
    1st round— Cooper Dejean CB
    2nd round— Jack Sawyer OLB
    3rd round— Will Shipley RB
    4th round— Ricky Pearsall WR
    5th round— Ladd McKonkey WR
    6th round— Cash Jones RB
    7th round— Carson Steele RB

    I have been pondering this all day.

    I think he may be in the mix. I'm not ready to make a prediction.

    I'm someplace between MO and Wave. Odds are never, but he's intriguing.

    Obviously tested off the chart in ESPN science thingy (highly technical term) and was great at ole miss, but there is a reason he was essentially undrafted. What's the Bull Durham line, "million dollar arm, five cent brain" or something like that.

    I hope he's healthy at camp and can get meaningful reps at camp and in preseason games (might be hard in games with Siemian/Lynch competition being battled.

    Kelly would have to be pretty impressive to be the #1 or #2 but i have not heard anything about him shining so far in training camp. If he ever does show any potential it wont be for another 2 years unless he pulls off a Tom Brady and is forced to come in and performs well. For now the only competition is between Siemian and Lynch.

    Actually, Kelly hasn't been participating because he was recovering from his wrist injury. Apparently, the doctors have given him clearance for the upcoming training camp, so we'll see how he does. But I doubt that he makes much of a splash because he has missed out on everything so far. Next year will be a better judge, I would think.
