1:30 pm Cole n Green first players down the hill.
No Minkah today.
TE's on sled drill in order 88 , 81, 80 83 n 87
All worked the sleds well enough. Washington with real good explosion.
Tanner Morgan our basic camp arm is accurate but he can't spin it like the other 3 n his release is so so. Looked accurate enough in perfect conditions with no rush. he was not used in any team drills today so that tells us something.
7 shots :
Single back set with Najee shot gun with 8 as qb. 1 hole run scores a TD.
Empty set then Warren motions into single back set 8 in gun, out route to 88 broken up by Peterson.
KP still in looking for 14 but inc he was held by Sullivan #34.
MT in at qb McFarland on a 2 gap dive stopped by Herbig.
MT inc to Gentry who turned inside n pass was thrown to outside shoulder. Not on same page.
MT still in, 1 hole dive by Hagans short of goal. Perales on the stop with great get off.
MT pressured rolls right could walk it in but tosses inc in right flat.
Back on Backers:
55 beats 22.
56 beats 88
54 beats 81
90 stoned by 80. Yeah rookie won that one.
51 beats 83. Heyward needs to bend at the knees not at the waist.
83 Heywrd bounces back keeps his leverage in holds out 51.
General notes:
Austin takes one 40 yds for the score on a 9. Even with db then a burst n he was gone. Nice to see the speed live.
Boyken showing decent hands. Ball not getting to his chest.
Pickens makes circus catch with good coverage by Porter. You likely saw that already on twitter. Place went loud with that.
More Back on Backers:
44 beats 38

54 gets through 81. Gentry needs to bend those knees he's tall n it's hurting him in pass pro.
56 vs 80 I'll call this a draw.

83 blocks out 51. Heyward using better leverage now. Striking a rising blow getting the rusher upright.

83 blocks out 45. Some good improvement here for Connor.

Quick notes:

Closing notes:
After running a bunch of "pistol "prior to today not one play out of it with the pads on.
Porter with a good day even though Pickens got him twice.
Cody White coming out party today. Best I ever saw him look. Hands ( had 1 combat catch) but more then a few non body catches with some yack.
Washington looking like he can block and because of his size he just ran some simple hooks and it's like he is posting up and an easy pitch n catch.
Alexander #26 really quick today with no false steps.
Morgan not seeing team drills. Just a limited number of reps so the 4 got none today.
Dan Moore getting reps at RT today.
91 Marshall good short area quickness,
Post practice:
