(Merged Thread) Robert Royal

[RiggoDrill]

Not to totally disagree with the train of this thread, but Robert Royal was not drafted as a pass catching tight end, he was drafted to be a special teamer and a blocking end (yes, those actually exist - ever hear of Rick Walker?). Injuries and other players not being up to par with the offense (Johnson, Kozlowski) have forced the coaches to use him in areas where he is not well suited, ie. pass catching. Yesterday was not the first game where he dropped multiple passes either. He is a solid, if unspectacular blocker, which is why he is still on the team.
I would cut him though, I'm sure thay can find someone to block as well, if not better.
