    Most impressive guy at Camp is Roscoe

    Roscoe Parrish was the one player that stood out to me at camp he has unbelievable speed and quickness, but the thing that he does better than any player on the team is his moves, and then righting himself and he is in full speed mode in like two strides,

    i watched him play in college and he has moves campariable to Donte Hall but much better speed I think that if he is a 4th reveier in the formation he will be extremely hard to cover one on one and gives us an immmediate threat at WR, i hope he keeps it up because he catches everything and is not afraid of being hit, plus he does look like he added maybe 10 pounds, He should also be an electrfying punt returner as well,

    I am very excited about what he brings to the team and think he will help a young JP alot if he ends up starting

    I've always thought that Roscoe was a great addition, despite many thinking that he is too small. But you can't teach blinding speed, moves and elusiveness.

    I think he'll be a monster punt returner and a great slot receiver - or even a 2nd guy to Evans.
    Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

      Hey as long as the guy can stay healthy I don't think you will find one bills fan that won't like the kid.

      Facts are though a 160lb guy is going to get crushed more often than not

          Parrish is listed at 5'9"/168 lbs, which would make him a little lighter, but about the same height, as Santana Moss and Steve Smith. But, assuming that weight (or lack of bulk) is the real issue, he would have about the same frame as Marvin Harrison, who is a little taller and heavier, but about as thin as Roscoe.

          There are a lot of small, wiry WRs in the league who play well and are not injured a disproportionate amount of time

            I'd love to see him returning punts. With his speed and elusiveness, which nearly mimics McGee, I foresee the Bills STs racking up several points this season.

              Being a fan of the U, I can tell you that he is definitely fun to watch when he has the ball in space and there isn't many in the league that will run him down, especially from the slot or 4th WR spot. When we took him, I stated on here that he was a Peerless Price clone, decent receiver, makes some bonehead plays and isn't afraid to go over the middle. He could be what Az Hakim was to the greatest show on turf back in the day. There isn't too many nickle or dime corners that have the speed to keep up with him.

                  One of the other thinigs i noticed about him is he knows exactly when to turn it on and that is another thing you cant teach, the way i look at it he doesnt have to be 6'2 and 215lbs to run bye someone so hopefully he stays healthy

                    little early to be saying that, don't you think? You're saying I'm wrong based on on guy's opinion.

                      Roscoe broke his wrist diving for a catch. In a situation like that, ANYONE could break their wrist. It's no different than what happened to Bruschi, i.e. a freak injury happening to anyone.

                          I want to be wrong about 90% of the stuff I've said because it means the Bills will do well. I'd love to see Roscoe be the next Steve Smith.

                          Unfortunately, me wanting something doesn't make it so.

                            He was the most impressive at camp last season too.
