Redskins sign rookie Kelly: The Redskins signed second-round pick, WR Malcolm Kelly, on Monday, and he will receive a signing bonus of $1.655 million, reports the Washington Times. Kelly, who left Oklahoma a year early after catching 111 passes for 1,814 yards and 19 touchdowns the past two seasons, could play a critical role in the red zone for the Redskins because at 6-foot-4, he's six inches taller than incumbent starters Santana Moss and Antwaan Randle El. Washington struggled to complete passes inside the 20 the past few years to anyone other than tight end Chris Cooley or fullback Mike Sellers. "I'm looking forward to watching Malcolm develop in training camp and preseason," said Vinny Cerrato, executive vice president of the Redskins. (Updated 07/14/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Kelly could be worth taking a late-round flier on in deeper seasonal leagues because he will have the chance to make plays with the Redskins. In rookie-only drafts, consider Kelly a third-round pick. (Updated 07/14/2008).
