8/15 Camp report

My observations:

Willis watched the entire practice.  He was in pads but saw no action - not even stretching.

Correction - Willis was stretching on a limited basis .... on the 45 yd line next to JP.

 

My son & I made the 614 mile round trip trek yesterday & it was a blast. Well run & fun... More practice & stretching than 7 on 7's but it was all great to see.

I was impressed with Lindell however.  I am NOT a fan of his... and he looked pretty good.  Made all his FGs... though I really thought his long was close to 52 (or that's what my bro said... I'm horrible with FG distances...) but still... looked good.  So did his kick offs. 

 

Shaud was really good last night, one of the few bright spots in the offense in my opinion.  He's going to be a great back up for Willis.  I'm really starting to like him.

Agreed.... 52 yarder & Shaud is xlent!

As far as Dorenbos' future (as someone questioned), any time you can replace a 'specialty' position with a backup already on the roster, you do it so you can spend the roster position elsewhere.  Besides that, the long snapper needs a backup too...plenty of reasons to try Preston at long snapper.

What he said. Nothing against Dorenbos as LS. It's just that it's all he does. You're tying up a roster spot for a guy who does one little thing.

One little VERY IMPORTANT thing, as the busted FG attempts both Saturday and Monday nights proved. Could be the difference between winning and losing a game someday. Agreed, though - better to find out whether or not Preston can adequately back up Dorenbos now, than to have to go looking for a Bradford Banta-type at midseason.
