Title: Roddy White Released
Post by: Snaggletiger on March 03, 2016, 03:33:26 PM
Slow news day and I know I'm the only one on the board that gives two frippity shits about the Falcons.  But as crappy as they've been, Roddy White was always one of the bright spots.  Drafted out of UAB, the guy had/has had a great career with over 800 catches, 63 TD's and almost 11,000 receiving yards.  No, not HOF stats by any means but a damn productive career.  He's 34 so I imagine it's iffy whether he'll get a shot with someone else.

His past season was fucking awful.  Something's amiss with the guy.

No doubt.  He stayed banged up the last few years.  Plus, Whooleeoo has become option 1, 2 and 3 for Ryan, with good reason.  Whereas Roddy was the go-to guy for most of his career there.

He was a great wrestler back in the day.  Kind of surprised he made it this long.

Not shur if suryus or a Piper reference.  But, when you said that, I recalled an announcer talking about White wrestling in high school.  The wiki's said he was a two-time state champion in Sakerlina.

It was, but I think it had more to do with the offense than his talent.
