Eddie Royal brings electric all-purpose playmaking to Virginia Tech
Royal is a quick, versatile wideout whose value goes beyond raw catch totals: in the 2005 season at Virginia Tech, he led the Hokies with 28 receptions for 470 yards and 3 touchdowns while also adding a dangerous return game, averaging 28.8 yards on kickoff returns and 11.0 on punt returns.[8] He stands out for acceleration, open-field burst, and the kind of toughness and urgency coaches love in a high-impact role player; that blend makes him a strong fit if you want a receiver who can stress defenses and change field position.[4][8]
