Roll the 757, course you can, done it many times, (in the sim,!) but Tex Johnson rolled the B707 prototype in the air ''selling airplanes''.
I have no doubt the airframe is capable of a roll, but is't the flight computers limiting the bank angle? Discovery wings were mentioning 60degrees for the A380 if I remember right.
