Insider Report for Friday afternoon;
Ratliff showed his excellence and quickness in a dummy drill.
Most defensive linemen slap the dummy, then move beside it to get by.
Not Ratliff, he slaps the dummy backwards, then is quickly by with
his superior quickness then any other defensive linemen in the NFL.
Then is behind the offensive linemen, and in qb or rb face.
On punt returns, usual 4, newman, reid, felix & crayton. Felix is still
having trouble, muffed 3 and nearly dropped a 4th.
TE Bennett has a new attitude in camp. Last year against the sled, he
would get one arm up and kinda lean on it, while hoping the sled woudlnt
push back. Yet, this afternoon, he exploded into the sled, nearly flipping it
over a couple of times, whiich means in football terminology, lifting a defensive
player almost off the ground, and making the sled hinges would almost break.
As you all know, Miles Austin probably has the deepest speed on the team, but
Austin showed off his leaping ability friday, while stopping on a dime or settling into
the zone, and jumping high up in the air, outjumping defenders for the ball.
Buehler worked on his onside kicks, while wade was watching closely. First one
bounced out of bounds, but the rest hit the nail on the head. Coming right down
by the sideline, with a couple of feet over the 10 yrds past line of scrimmage
What was funny in a way, rookies victor butler & jason williams got a taste of a true
running back in the nfl, combined with their weight of about 480 pounds, they
thought they had marion barber in town, but barber ripped his way out of their grasp and took off field.
Hurd showed good focus jumping up for the ball, while jenkins drilled him in the back
before the ball got there.
Mike Hamlin made the spectaular catch of the day again, as was posted on other posts
Wade Phillips said in regards to Mike Hamlin, He has great hands, everson walls kind of hands, just spectacular, so keep your eyes on this kid.
