US-41 Falcon 134 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 This is a no-doubter. He is hands down the best receiver this franchise had seen in 40 years. It's really kind of serendipitous that Julio comes in and eclipses him. I think a lot of Roddy's legacy will be what he was able to show Julio in his early years. Also, didn't see it mentioned here, but, thank you, Joe Horn. You came in here and showed this dude how to be a pro. We don't forget that. FalconsIn2012 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That technically makes him the quickest ROH honoree in franchise history, and it’s not particularly close. Yeah. I expect Ryan and Julio to get in as soon as they retire. I don’t think falcons have 5 year rule to induct some one in to ROH. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lol... not raining on his day, I agree he deserves to be in the ROH and I most certainly congratulated him, but this was the fastest I've ever seen someone inducted into it. We've got old players that the their clocks are ticking who should be inducted too. I don't think Roddy's going anywhere anytime soon by Gods grace. Just a small point I was making that didn't deserve another thread and I definitely wouldn't have done so. Vandy and FalconsIn2012 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Osiruz 10,079 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Wish he got to lift one Lombardi before he retired. Sadly people won't realize how great Roddy was 10 years from now. We need to induct Michael Turner next, as well as Gonzo. Cole World and ATLSlobberKnockers 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TheDancingBird 71 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Until Julio inevitably rewrites our receiving record books, (which could very well be this year) I consider Roddy to be our greatest WR ever. There was nothing like his trolling smile against the aints especially. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Xero 564 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 How could I have missed this? I’ve been unplugged for a few days but man this is awesome news to come back to.

Statick 13,326 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Props to Roddy and well-deserved. I didn't like it when we picked him and never thought he was a first round talent and I was so glad to be wrong. The man worked hard and did very well for us. That and he could troll Saints fans like no other. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tandy 18,412 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Congrats Roddy! You deserve it and I'm thrilled you made it!
