I am very glad because if kelly goes maybe we can get someone who is healthy and a team player unlike Kelly. He has been so inconsistant for the past couple of years and we have known we need to replace him for years and we were hoping Penn State Alan Zemantis would have been the answer unfortuntley he was not. We will still be solid this year because of our tampa 2 scheme. With out playing man to man it makes things alot easier knowing you just have to cover your part of the field and try to read the QB.

Thank you Brian Kelly. Buying out of your contract was the best thing you’ve done as a Buc in about two or three years. Now we can go out and get a guy that can possibly start for 10 or 12 games which is about double what you’ve done for us lately. And maybe they’ll even show up for OTA’s and Training Camp.

Buffalo Bills are looking at Brian Kelly - good luck with that.  they are hoping to get a full season out of him as a starter - I don’t think so....

I think BK was a player in the mold of Keenan McCardell. . . great for us, key and clutch at times, but in the long run, he’s an average player. Now with his recent string of injuries, BK should be on the value menu.
