Roscoe Parrish

[BILLSROCK1212]

If you were DJ, although it was just one game would you start Roscoe Parrish as our number two wider reciever. He deffinetly is looking good so far. I would give him a chance as a number two wide reciever to see what he really has. I think it would be an interesting experiment.

Re: Roscoe Parrish

I would try to get the ball in his hands as often as possible. He freaking tore down the middle of the field on his TD pass this weekend.

Re: Roscoe Parrish

Hes' to small and not strong enough to be a number two. But hes perfect for the slot beacuse at times he'll get coverage from LB's and Safties, and with his speed, he's at a total advantage.

Re: Roscoe Parrish

Keep him in the slot where he is doing good right now and just get him the ball more often.

He's not that much smaller than santana moss and randle el. A little lighter, but not as much.

his size is an issue.

did you see the one punt return? The guy barely got him by the ankle and he couldn't break free- he easily had 10 yards, maybe 15, if he could have gotten that one guy off of him.

No doubt he has looked good in the receiving game and he has an excellent first move, but his size would definitely come into play if he's a bigger part of the offense.

Re: Roscoe Parrish

Though Parrish is small like Smith and Moss, the difference is those two guys are remarkably compact and strong, while Roscoe is smaller and more fraile (in terms of body frame).

Parrish excels in open space, and the catch against the Jets is testament. But he's not a solid starter who can time and time again go over the middle and make the tough catch and take the punnishment like Smith and Moss can.

Not taking anything away from Parrish, he's doing very well at being used the way he is, and I hope it continues.. As a #3 in that slot, and especially in open space, he's as dangerous (if not more) than anyone on this team.

Re: Roscoe Parrish

His touchdown was the fastest run i've seen in the whole NFL so far this season. The kid F'in took off man!

Re: Roscoe Parrish

I'd have to say this was a really good draft pick. He's doing exactly what he was designed to do. Just keep getting the ball in his hands. It's just a matter of time before he rips off a few TDs in the return game. He changes the game and he's in the right spot to do it right now.

first he has to catch the ball. His hesitation on those two punts cost us some valuable field position against the Jets.

same thing he was at miami..... and that was playing with moss, and others

granted he is a smaller receiver, his run against the jets was proof enough he can hang....... sadly he is a burner receiver (fly/long post patterns).... he's not a middle of the field guy, and not a strong dink/dunk receiver

need some more spread plays that free roscoe up!

it was half hesitation, and half the ball being controlled by the wind......
at least he wasn't pulling off some of those runs for negative yardage

Good post.

Parrish can be a lethal return man and a solid #3 guy. While I love watching him play I cringe every time he gets the ball because I literally think one day we will see him torn in half on the field.

While he is a great player for us, he is strictly a role player.

No. That is all.

I don't think he would have hesitated if it were not for the wind. The ball was moving all over the place.
