I hate to steal Op's thunder with a negative thread, but the sooner Mcgee and Youboty get back the better. This guy is a liabilty. He needs alot of work. The tools are there, dont get me wrong, his tackling is great. He is fast as hell, and he is an ASSET on run support. He had no bussiness covering the 6'5" Vincent Jackson by himself. He looked like a rookie.

Re: "TOAST" Mckelvin
its all good im glad we won. im glad he got exposed, it is good for em. YOU GOTTA CRAWL BEFORE YOU CAN WALK. i think that play for the td he was burned on was part of his welcome to the nfl package.2009 AFC East Division Champs 12-4

Originally posted by pinkdogg32he was not really close to Floyd on the first Td. On the one to Jackson he was actually in decent position to whap it down, but Jackson has a big frame, the throw was an NFL-caliber throw, and its something hes gonna work on I'm sure.

Originally posted by ConfusedNo doubt he will get better. I guess what I am saying is we need to not put him in situations like that if we can avoid it.

Re: "TOAST" Mckelvin
I am he was able to take his lumps yesterday. He received an NFL education you just don't get in college. He'll improve and by the end of the season he'll be playing well. By next season he'll justify why we took him.

Re: "TOAST" Mckelvin
I am not a fan of McKelvin i have been saying it all along since i seen him at the Preseason Night practices that i went to
He has bust written all over him, i know it is too early to say but he consistently run straight into the coverage on STs and regularly gets beat on double moves on D
Hope it can be corrected but i just dont see the potential everyone else doesXTRA CRISPY XTRA SAUCEY

Re: "TOAST" Mckelvin
I would not even come close to taking another rookie CB over him...... He still has an amazing set of tools to work with, and a great coaching staff and peers (Mcgee, Whitner, Greer) to learn from. Look at Greer, I was on this board 2 years ago saying I can't beleive he is still on the team, and now he is one of the most under rated CBs in the league. If he is still "toast" this time next year (which he will not be) then you can say "I told you so." How about enjoying the fact that we are 5-1 and one of the best teams in the AFC rather than pointing out insignifigant problems with the team.

Re: "TOAST" Mckelvin
if this team were on a 5-11 path I would say the kid can play and not to worry...I will feel better with McGee back.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
