The Facts:
HC Josh McDaniels said this past weekend one of the goals for the upcoming season was to find a way to get Royal and other players, like Peyton Hillis, more involved in the team’s offense. “There’s a few players, obviously, the productivity maybe the year before they didn’t match it again last year,” McDaniels said. “We’re not happy about that either. Eddie Royal’s kind of the same way, we want those players to continue to work and try to get better at what they do and then we need to try to find a way to integrate them in because they’re all skillful players who do good things with the football in their hands.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Although McDaniels said he was upset at himself for not getting Royal more involved, there has to be some concern about what Royal's ceiling is in the offense. Royal finished with 37 catches this past season and did not have a receiving touchdown. In 2008, as a rookie, Royal had 91 receptions and five touchdowns.
