With the 55th overall pick, the Buffalo Bills selected Miami Hurricanes WR Roscoe Parrish. Parrish is listed at (5'9", 168lbs, 4.43).

Parrish red-shirted in 2001. He returned punts and started three games at WR in 2002, catching 14 passes for 271 yards and one touchdown. He provided excellent depth and returned punts in 2003, finishing with 24 catches for 322 yards and two touchdowns. He moved into the starting lineup in 2004 and finished the season with 39 receptions for 630 yards and eight touchdowns. Parrish also returned 17 punts for 252 yards and one touchdown last year.

Parrish is extremely undersized and, as a result, he may never develop into an outside starter. However, Parrish has the potential to develop into a sure-handed and shifty slot receiver that can also contribute as a punt return specialist. As a result, Parrish grades out as a second or early-third round prospect in the 2005 NFL draft.
