A Good Walk Spoiled

I'm hitting a Taylormade R7 draw 10.5* driver right now, and while I absolutely love the club and don't plan on changing it anytime soon, I have a question about lowering my trajectory to get some roll. I'm not super-long off the tee, but lately I've been getting 220-260 yds, but absolutely no roll. The ball comes down so steep that it's not uncommon for the ball to be inches from the mark it makes on impact.
I'm not sure if that's just how the club plays, or just how it plays for me. I'm not having any trouble keeping it in the fairway, and I'm satisfied with the distance (as long as my golf buddies are still only hitting 200 ) but if I can get a little roll, I'd certainly be happy with it.
My other thought is that if I'm hitting on a lower trajectory, the ball will likely be landing shorter and may only roll to where it's landing now, with a net gain of zero. If that is likely the case then I suppose there's no point in trying to change anything. Before you ask, I don't have a video of my swing.
Thoughts?
