Here's a report I got from someone at practice today.
_________________
Is Junior Alexis a player and is he really 280? yes and yes. Kid is very explosive during drills and looks all of 280. I expect him to play some next year.
Who stood out? Curtis Porter. While on the 2nd team he dominated and and his first team reps were just as impressive. Mike James looks alot bigger and broke off a few nice runs. Brandon Linder. He might be the best all around lineman we've had here in a decade. Rashawn Scott. continues to get open and make plays. Jimmy Gaines made a great stop on mike james on goalline drills.
Who didn't look good? Olsen Pierre. He got dishragged all day long. Jeremy Lewis. Looked out of it and was getting dogged pretty hard by kehoe. Flowers was getting dog cussed by Kehoe aswell but he's obviously still getting adjusted.
qb's: Williams is completing passes they just aren't very pretty. Alot of wobbly passes. Gray Crow has a very strong arm but I think if he lost 10 pounds his mobility would be enough to play at miami. I think Dewey looks poised in the pocket and throws a good ball.
rb: Mike James and OT will be more than serviceable next year. both are well rounded and Have great vision. OT put a sick move on Armbrister to score in a drill.
wr: not enough bodies to make an assessment other than Scott and Dorsett look very good.
te: didnt see much other than Cleveland had a few td's in goalline drills.
offensive line: Bunche is the vocal leader of the group which is odd considering he has the least amount of experience in the group. Linder and Feliciano look great at guard and Mcdermott looks more than just average like Horn did last year. He has more foot speed than Horn so getting up on backers won't be a problem.
defensive line: Chick looked stout as usual. Porter like i said is a difference maker at the 3 technique. Shayon Green still looks a step slow at end. Rico Williams did well in a few situations but nothing crazy. Note Kelvin Cain played in a 3 point almost all of practice.
lb: Gaines looked great but I really wish he would put more weight on. Kirby when in has looked very good aswell. Solid size especially for a guy who should still be in hs.
db: Telemaque had a pick in drills today. Ray Ray looks a little faster but not fast enough for my liking. Finnie got burnt today on a play and Williams was all over him. He's smaller than I thought he would be. Didn't really watch the db's enough though to be honest.
