I was very happy when we extended him.

Cheap deal for a spot WR & punt returner extraordinaire.

My stance hasn't changed. Great PR, marginal receiver (4th man at best) and drafted because he was teammates with McGahee.

For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.

I still don't love the pick but he has played great on special teams. He needs to be replaced by Hardy though because he's just not big enough to be on the field.

I totally agree. That man is one of the sickest returnmen I've ever seen. He'll end up being one of the best IMO!

he's hard to utilize as a WR but he's worth the roster spot for his return ability.

I've never disliked the Parrish pick or Parrish himself. He needs to get the ball more often.

Re: Do you guys remember when guys here hated Parrish?

also don't forget that we had no first rounder that year so Roscoe was our highest pick- you can't really blame people for being concerned that our highest draft pick for that year was a 5'7" WR.

All Hester can do is be a returner. I don't see any hate against him. Go Roscoe.

It doesn't hurt that he's THE best returner of all time.

He isn't yet but yes he is getting there. The point is every time he touches the ball something can happen good or bad but you can feel it and I get the same thing with Roscoe. Wasn't Parrish near the top as a PR last year?

Re: Do you guys remember when guys here hated Parrish?

I don't think many people hated Roscoe....I just think many people questioned how he fits in on a team with other small receivers. I am glad he is here, and don't think size matters as much for a WR as some think. Look at Steve Smith...one of the best and he's a little guy.

Re: Do you guys remember when guys here hated Parrish?

I think people overlook Roscoe's ability as a WR only because he is hands down the 2nd best return man in the NFL behind only Devin Hester. He has grown to become one of my favorite players to watch. Probably the best PR to ever grace a Bills uniform.
