What a wuss...that's what we get for signing someone from Atlanta...

We might have fewer heat related hammy pulls and such. That is always a concern when its really hot.

To be honest, its hard to watch the later players play due to the dimensions of the way it is set up. We have up close look at 1st and 2nd teamers, but the guys later down on the DC its harder to get looks at.

Actually, I didnt get to get near, but I included some of the guys I did get to meet

I think I figured it out.

Great pics!

And are they in full pads yet because lots of guys can shine in limited contact drills?

I dont think he could pass up Khiry, Ingram, nor Thomas. Havent we before carried 5 RBs on the 53 man? Cadet has been running with 1st team KO and punt teams, so he is hoping for that at least.

Friday I noticed after an hour or so each they stopped and did stretches again, and another time did wind sprints to stay loose.

Thank you! I am very blessed to get all of these. I dont know how TCs are in NOLA or how it was in Oxnard, but overall I am like a kid in a candy store. Loving it.

I admit I didn't know we actually carry 5 backs on the final 53. I am not big on Cadet at all so my opinion on Flanders is altered especially if he can return kicks at all. We haven't had a good returner since Reggie and last year we were awful in the return game in my opinion and like I said I've seen enough of Cadet. And our track record with UFA running backs is spectacular. He was a free agent right? Could Payton and Loomis have done it again?

This RB Derrick Strozier looks really interesting. I think he could be a big threat to Cadet's roster spot.

Flanders looks incredibly, incredibly similar to Aaron Stecker.

Anyone else making the trek to Greenbriar?!? I can see why it's floundered as a resort - it's in the middle of No Where, West Virginia!!!
