Roundtree

Is Roundtree going to show up at some point this year? I think this is another reason to not un-retire numbers. Roundtree is not representing the 21 well at all.

Right on cue.

he showed up, but to me it doesn't mean much.

He's a great team guy, not a very good WR.

Move him back to slot receiver.

Roundtree averaged 2 catches a game all last season and this year has been no different. After he caught a short pass Saturday against UMass, I turned to my dad and said, "Well, he should be done for the day."

I have no idea if Denard doesn't like throwing to him or if the coaching staff just doesn't want to use him but there has to be a reason he's a blink and you'll miss him player on the field.

He doesn't get open. End of story. He is out of position on the outside, but Gallon is becoming a pretty good slot guy, so Roundtree can't replace him, so it is what it is.

Apparently we will be seeing him in the end zone more often-

You don't have favorite players -- I try not to have favorite players, but if I did, he'd be one of 'em. He's the essence of a team player. -Al Borges

The TEAM, the TEAM, the TEAM.

I'm okay with Roy only catching a couple passes a game. I wish he'd get open more but whatever helps the team.

Agreed.

The problem with that is, who is he going to replace? Gallon? I doubt it, he's been one of the most consistant pass catchers on the team. Dileo? Maybe.

I love Roundtree's attitude, but he is out of his element in this offense.

WELL---if his lone catch Saturday comes in circumstances similar to his final catch vs. the same
opponent last year...he'll have earned his scholarship for this week, in my book!

WH, I can't believe your first theory applies...seeing how they are roommates and all.
