Roscoe Parrish (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=7231), WR, Buffalo Bills (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=buf): I like this kid's explosiveness a lot, but I really like the pairing of him and J.P. Losman (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=5547) now that Losman has matured into a good NFL quarterback. Parrish is the type of downfield threat who quarterbacks love to have because he's multifaceted and can run any route -- not just the deep one. That forces safeties to bite on pump fakes, and in turn, will open up the deep ball for Parrish and Losman this season.

Roscoe is looking great!

if it didn't come from Theisman then i'd have been super excited.

LOL

One way or another, probably somewhat to coin-flip outcomes, these guys get paid to speculate like this.

Roscoe's only drawback is his size. Players his size almost as a rule never do much in the NFL. I'm not sure that his play in camp against our D is any significant measuring stick.

Either way, for all 170 lbs. of him, this is his 3rd season, so if he's ever going to amount to anything more than a PR and role-player WR, he should break out this season.

An interesting sideshow if nothing more.

Hope to see Roscoe used more because I like his Speedy WR style. :up:

[Bulldog]

Theismann blows! God I can't stand that guy.

[Oaf]

The best thing about him is, his hands are as sure as his speed. I've never seen the kid drop a ball.

I'm really excited about the Bills offense this season. The improved O-Line is going to help JP alot, and with Parrish and Evans out there when the Bills go 3 or 4 wide, it's going to cause alot of matchup problems. If opposing D's keep their safeties back trying to prevent Evans and Parrish from going deep, that's going to leave Lynch one on one coming out of the backfield vs. a LB. If teams want to match up a safety on Lynch, then Parrish and/or Evans will be one on one vs. a CB. If Reed or Royal can step it up, the offense could be deadly.

Yeah I guess those Smurfs were bad there is a return to the smaller recievers (huge dbs) will get turned inside out

Theismann doesn't know anything. You can put this comment in the "round file".

[Earthquake Enyart]

Too bad Theismann is a ******. :ill:

Wonder who wrote that for him?

[Mad Max]

Others are taking notice of Roscoe. I watched the Atlanta feed of the game and their commentators were jocking him bigtime.
