Helmets shorts and cletes, so not full contact. Threw tons of passes and 75% of them were deep passes.
QB's - as expected - Elijah - Jack - Aidan
Receivers - excellent competition here! Many that could vie for time on the field including
---------------------------------------------------------------
#4 - able to break free several times
Milton Wright - many nice catches
TJ Sheffield -
Mershawn Rice -
Ahmad Anderson - excellent deep contested catch
Jared Sparks - a %$^&*)# drop at one point, later tweaked an ankle - I think
Jordan Bonner -
Kory Taylor - he must impress a coach or two - tall but seems slow to me
Jackson - great hands, throw it close and he grabs it! Not sure about his speed however
David Bell was in street clothes, but did a tiny bit of running with a trainer at the end of practice
---------------------------------------------------------------
Some nice catches when one considers that it looks like the coaches tell the DB's to go after them, legally and illegally. One defender clearly held #4, preventing a deep reception. The entire defensive backfield celebrated, at the same time I was throwing a flag up in the stands.The only official in the Big who wouldn't have thrown the flag was one of the officials that we had for the NW game last year!
Running Backs - in no particular order. Also, hard to tell anything in this kind of scrimmage
---------------------------------------------------------------
Zander -
Tario -
King -
Alfred -
De'Joun
Richie Worship - no show - didn't even see him in street clothes.
OL
---------------------------------------------------------------
Hard to tell in this type of practice, but when I see the 2nd string, I'm hopeful that nobody gets hurt!
DL
---------------------------------------------------------------
Hard to tell in this type of practice.
Steven Faucheux looks huge (and he's only a freshman) !
Lorenzo was a no show, not in street clothes either (TK says he was there earlier in practice, but I looked for him throughout practice and NEVER saw him)
LB's and DB's
-------------------------------------------------
Hard to tell in this type of practice, looks like, barring injuries, we're really good in this area.
We definitely have some taller DB's than we're used to!
Dedrick and Kenneth looked pretty good for the most part.
Trice made a nice breakup or interception, can't remember which.
-Hopkins looks like he's gonna be a huge factor
-Markus - ditto
-JD hit a couple from 45 at the end of practice
-Barnes smelled out a jet sweep to #4 and blew it up!
-George might give us the pass rush that we NEED!
Keep in mind, there are over 100 players on the field, and it's hard to stand out. Also, even though I have a photographic memory, I've been out of film for about 5 years.
