I feel like Kelly doesn't get the appreciation he deserves because he was a blocker instead of a tight end putting up huge stats.
Reggie does get love. As coverage of the team increased, more people started taking notice of Kelly. Hobson even wrote about how opposing DCs planned a little around him (before the major Hobspin kicked in). Fans jumped on board when Palmer lobbied to get him re-signed. Where his image took a hit was back in the disastrous 2008 season. We had Kelly going out on routes just to give Fitz another check down other than Benson. The problem was that Kelly wasn't a great receiving TE. He'd bring in a catch here and there, but there were a lot of drops.
The one plus for him was that we Daniel Coats, who took a ton of wrath from fans that year.
You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.
