The Roscoe watch continues

Lost in the dullest game in Bills history since, well..last week.. was Roscoe Parrish being inactive for the game. Lots of speculation was that the Bills didn't want to risk Parrish getting injured because he should be good as gone by Tuesday. As usual, Jauron played it pretty coy when asked about Roscoe's status.

“Perception is in the eye of the perceiver,” said Jauron. “The switch was made there for a lot of reasons. Number one was the availability of Fred. Once Marshawn came back it gave us more room to use Fred in other ways where we really like him. And one of those ways is a return guy. When he’s our return guy it gives us more options for us across the board. We can get Stevie Johnson up as a receiver and we like Stevie and would like to keep developing him. He’s a special teams participant other than as a returner. He can play teams for us and it gives us a chance to get Justin Jenkins on the field for us who has been critical for us on special teams for us.

“It allowed us more leeway in terms of game decisions and personnel decisions. Both Roscoe and Freddy are terrific returners. We didn’t feel like we were losing much quite frankly.”

Thanks for the theory of relativity there, Dick. Not sure if Jauron knew, but Lynch has been back for the last 3 weeks, so spare me with your developing the father, son, and the holy spirit of players. Anyways, we all know this is just a smoke screen for Parrish to be on his way out.

ESPN is reporting that Parrish is the likely candidate to be traded before the deadline and the Bills are looking for either a 3rd or 4th round pick. Like I've said all along, Parrish is dead weight on this team and obviously doesn't want to be here anymore. I also question his skills as a returner as they seem to have diminished. Get some value for him while you still can. (Joenyc/Bills.com)
