Indiana Jones had some nice words for him on da site today, too:

IU RELAY: Who better to give the scouting report on the newest Bengal, wide receiver Courtney Roby, than a guy who covered him in practice for four years at Indiana in safety Herana-Daze Jones?

"He's got 4.3 speed and he practices very hard. He made some unbelievable catches in practice," said Jones of a player that left IU as the school's most prolific receiver. "And he's a good guy from a solid family up in Indianapolis. Good pickup."

Roby and Jones migrated from football to the track team, where they were teammates on a relay team that qualified for regionals with Roby anchoring and Jones running the second leg.

Even though he's been on the street since the Titans released him on cutdown day, Roby very well could be active Sunday and on special teams.

"I keep thinking, if that guy goes down, then he's got to play so you might as well let him practice," Lewis said. "If you're going to get him to play you better let him practice. We got him up to speed. He spent the day here (Tuesday) and ate all three meals here. He's very smart. Very intelligent guy. I think that will be helpful and he'll get up to speed very quickly. "

He's a burner that needs to work on his routes, he's also related to former Dolphins punter Reggie Roby.

I think he would be a good #4 reciever, if can get a one-on-one with a dime back or safety he could make a big play. In Tennessee they didn't have a strong receiving corp so they never had a wr that demanded double teams which makes it easier for young wr's to have success, so Roby struggled when he got on the field. Here we have 2 wr's that demand double teams so I think he could make some big plays if can hold on to the ball.

This is a decent pick-up, though I am still more concerned with the overall LB health.

I have thought that Holt has played well as a step-up 3, and has been OK on KR.

With Chatman back on the hammy train, Tab to IR and Cheech still out, they at least get a nod for seeking outside help.

WE NEED DEFENSE NOT OFFENSE, and IF we need any sort of offense it would be to shore up the OLINE.

Perhaps they will use him for kick-off returns?

With Tab on IR, someone has to play. Chatman has been terrible, so whatever.
