It's really a shame since he does seem to have a great motor and a relentless attitude... GW just didn't find a good way to use him in his schemes, but maybe Spags can find a way to tap into his potential. |

Man wouldn't that be freaking awesome, if he turns out like a Colston or Graham! A steal in the draft
Hope spags can turn this kid |

Granted, Da'Quan Bowers also had those injury concerns, which is why he dropped in the draft, both of them were considered risks, and both turned out well worth taking such a risk. But you gotta love Romeus' size and movement - looking at that video he brings to mind JPP from the Giants. |
