Re: Romeus

You mean before he gets injured or before he gets cut?

Re: Romeus

34 DE IMO if he can stay healthy what a big boost to the DL. he could be one of the best steals in a draft. but he needs to be on the feild

Either. The dude is more fragile than Chris Ivory.

Re: Romeus

Romeus is done. Such potential, but a career in the NFL is just not meant to be.

Re: Romeus

I will not count him out, he could be the wild-card we need. All that surgery and he is still here says something to me. I hope he has healed and comes back with a vengeance.

Re: Romeus

Yeah, I too hold hope for him still, but he needs to pull his sh!t together this season or he can kiss his NFL career goodbye.

I think DE is the place to put him, but he is borderline with his weight for that position and I don't know if his knees can take additional weight on his frame. Rushing OLB would probably better suit him from that weight standpoint, but again I'm not sure if his knees can take the angles outside pass rushers often have to take on their way to the QB.

It's definitely a hard one, and it all boils down to his health situation and if his physique can hold up.

Re: Romeus

I'm a big fan of his "ability", but I will have to say that he is done. I thought we cut him anyway last year... Maybe we didn't but either way he wont make the team.
