I was just curious as to what he has done, so I did a search on him. Looking deeper than his NFL experience, I wanted to see what he did in college.





In 49 games at the University of Oregon, Rosario recorded 94 receptions for 1,003 yards and 11 touchdowns. He also rushed for 84 yards and two touchdowns on 27 carries. Rosario played four different positions for the Ducks - halfback, H-back, fullback and tight end - and also was a special teams star for Oregon.
As a senior in 2006, Rosario was named as an All-Pac 10 honorable mention selection after making 42 receptions, a school single-season record for tight ends, for 426 yards and one touchdown. He was the co-recipient of the Gordon Wilson Award, given to Oregon's top special teams player, after recording ten tackles and one forced fumble.
In 2005, Rosario's junior season, he moved to tight end from fullback, and caught 15 passes for 168 yards and two touchdowns. He also record 11 tackles, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery on special teams.
In his sophomore season (2004), Rosario was shifted to fullback from H-back, and caught 25 passes for 278 yards and six touchdowns. He also rushed for 29 yards and a touchdown in 10 carries.
Rosario began his collegiate career at Oregon in 2003 and played H-back after being recruited primarily as a linebacker. He started three games as a freshman and made 12 catches for 131 yards and two touchdowns, and rushed for 55 yards and one touchdown on 17 carries.


I know it's been a while since his days as a "Duck", but he seemed to be a versatile player ( I know, a lot of kids play different positions in college before they "stick"). But it looks like he was "productive" at every position he played, at the "major college" level.



So it seems that he COULD be moved around a lot in this offense, given he HAS played multiple positions on offense at the college level. He could be shifted into different positions pre snap, he doesn't HAVE to be a TE. He also may be a contributor on ST......Just a thought.:ponder:
 
Im hoping this kid can be that athletic TE this team has been missing....
 
Why did so many "experts" think that if Drew Bledsoe never got hurt, Brady would have never seen the field??

I disagree.....Brady would have won the QB job by the following yr if Drew didnt get hurt.....Belicheat was all over Brady after his first offseason with team and was voted most improved.....Drew was always a mistake waiting to happen and Belicheat knew he had the kid to replace Drew with just like he did with Kosar in Cleveland the experts are wrong on this one.....
