Here is my take on the practice and it changed my mind on a few players...

Jason Craft, CB this guy should be starting opposite of Fred Thomas. He had a great practice and broke up a couple of passes almost picking one off and stopping Stallworth from bringing in a bomb. Why do they have Ambrose on first team is crazy... he got beat all day and just slow. Start of the season if craft isn't starting we are going to have a long 8-8 season again. Getting him seems to be a good thing. Hell check out CB Maurice Tucker looks good also and I would start him over Ambrose even. Tucker looks as if he can play and had a good practice. Thomas, Craft Tucker and toss a coin for Craver/Brown.

If I had to pick the WR's to make the team as of this practice, its...
Horn, Stallworth, Pathon, Derrick Lewis (looking great!). The sleeper WR in all this looks to be Nathan Black out of Baton Rouge. Great hands, only WR besides the above to have not dropped a pass and managed to get open. Gardner, whom I was a huge fan of, did not impress me at all... 2 passes dropped and didn't seem to get open as much. Derrick Lewis also showed he has jets. Cook has a ticket waiting for him at Kenner airport to take him home, along with McGeoghan whom I don't think deserves to be a waterboy even. M. Lewis may make the cut but its going to be close. He caught some passes but I don't know if he is making a good impression enough... of course he stands out on punt returns.

WOW, our RB's look great also. Lamar Smith running well brook free on a couple of outside tackle runs. Stecker can catch out of the back field and showed some speed and Carter seems also to be getting open and can run. So its a tough spot for the RB's jocking for a spot.

Now this Howard Green, DT looks good. I didn't even know his name until today and our front line is going to be great even if we have to use second teamers in there they will get the job done. ITS AMBROSE going to cost us games!!!

Getting back to Craft though, he drew cheers the loudest of the day and the most of the day from the crowd. He stood out BIGTIME. We so have to get rid of Ambrose.

I am hoping to make it out for Monday afternoon's practice.
