Roush is a fluid mover. He has solid footwork off the line and at the top of stem to earn separation, but he lacks top-end speed to threaten the seam or explode with the ball in his hands. Roush has functional strength limitations that show up in his blocking. He is a tenacious, high-effort blocker, but he can get blown back by powerful defenders. He's best utilized when asking him to combo block with a lineman or chipping before he gets into his route. Roush isn't a dynamic YAC threat with only 5.3 yards after the catch per reception in his collegiate career, and only three missed tackles in his final season. Dynasty Outlook: The Bears surprisingly pulled the trigger and drafted Roush in the third round of the NFL Draft. Colston Loveland isn't going anywhere. Cole Kmet isn't a free agent until 2028, but Chicago could cut him after the 2026 season and save a little over 4 million against the cap. Roush is a decent fourth-round rookie dart, but this feels like the dollar store version of Isiah Likely's situation previously with Baltimore. Roush could just be a decent TE2 for Chicago when they feature 12 personnel and nothing more.
