McKelvin's working on his weakness

[Romes]

The big knock on McKelvin was his stone hands...well check out this little bit in the Buffalo News:

After lifting weights with the rest of the defensive players Sunday afternoon, McKelvin came out of the Bills’ training building by himself and spent about 15 minutes catching footballs thrown out of the Jugs machine.

“I caught three interceptions my whole college career,” McKelvin said. “I had plenty of chances my senior year. I could have led the nation in picks easily but I dropped more. That’s the first thing I’m working on. I’m going to work on it after practices.”

And its also a good thing he recognizes it as a weakness.

I thought his weakness was speaking.

Yeah, no signs of him practicing enunciating

You guys have to quit making fun of his southern accent. He is a Bills player. There is no need to mock his accent. If he turns out to be great, he may not want to be here anymore because of how idiots the fans act. The guy is from the south. That is a southern accent. I hate Bills fans, the ones who claim they are, making fun of our own players. You should look yourself in the mirror and make fun of yourself on how you never made it as an NFL star compared to McKelvin, while making minimum wage cleaning his car.

People from the North will ALWAYS make fun of Southern accents. It's just a fact of life.

Way overboard but I agree that we shouldn't rip on him for the way he talks.

Re: McKelvin's working on his weakness

that is great news to hear he is working on that constantly.

hell, if he had spent more time on that in college, he may have gone even higher. if he adds 4 or 5 more picks to his senior year total, he is probably a top 5 selection.

i cant wait to see this kid play.. especially on kick returns.

Re: McKelvin's working on his weakness

The only talking he needs to do is on the field. We also have no fear of a verbal personal foul with the refs, they'll have no idea if he swears at them or not.

Good to see he is working on that.

I'd also like to see him working on his bump coverage some too, that was another place he struggled in college.

Or maybe they will figure everthing he says is a swear word.

I didn't think of that.

I cheered when he was drafted. He was a top 6-7 talent.

I could care less if he can't be the lead in Hamlet. It's a joke.
