Last year: I ranked Rolapp #123 and said he would be a backup wide receiver (LINK). He played in two games and caught 1 pass for 26 yards.
TTB Rating: N/A
Just like Andrew Russell, whom I posted about earlier today (LINK), we're getting into the walk-ons that I think will play a role this fall. Rolapp does not have great size or speed, but he's a smooth runner and pass catcher that I have watched a little bit whenever the opportunity arises. He made the travel squad to go to Maryland last year, which is where he got an opportunity to make a nice 26-yard catch from backup Alan Bowman in the blowout.
I don't expect Rolapp to factor into the regular rotation this season, but he's perfectly capable of taking some late game snaps.
Prediction: Backup wide receiver
Making the travel roster as a RSFr walk-on, at a loaded position is nothing to scoff at
ReplyDeleteGood for him, and good luck this season
