Hopefully he either catches on or comes off the bench.

He was never much good for the 4-3, in my opinion. Sorry -- but I've never been a fan of Rocky. I'm eager to hear what his fans point to as reason why he should stay, apart from the usual 'he's a good locker room guy' excuse. When you factor in the way Vinny and Gibbs tripped all over themselves to move up and trade picks to get him, the guy has been an absolute bum and personifies the mediocrity that has plagued this team for the past 5-10 years.
I'm not bitching though -- if there's absolutely nobody else available and you need someone with a pulse to fill the position, fine. Obviously no other team gave to shakes and a doo about him. His career highlights could speak to that. As others have said, it wouldn't be a surprise if he's not even with the team on Sept. 11.
In the meantime, I'll find a way to endure another preseason of his glaring non-existence on the field.
