Hillis really looks ready to do it all this year. Good hands out of the backfield and runs with so much power and vision. A definite upgrade over Jones and Battle from last year obviously. Baldwin is as advertised this year. He is in excellent shape, goes up and gets the ball and has a good thing going with Cassel. Cassel looks more comfortable than I ever remember seeing him in a TC. Looks like he knows where to go with the ball and was hitting back shoulder throws with good accuracy tonight. Quinn looks to be more consistent than Stanzi. Stanzi reminds me of his days at Iowa...A very good play followed by a WTF type of play. I can't see Stanzi beating out Quinn. Wylie looks like a white version of Dex with better hands. Dex is going to get a look everywhere in Daboll's offense. He moves him around a lot.
Defensively, Routt looks to be extremely athletic and plays aggressive football. I don't see a huge dropoff from Carr IMO other than a little more risk/reward with Routt. Seems to really want the ball when its in the air. Poe and Powe both had a good practice. Coaches are bringing both along slowly and working with both after nearly every rep. Poe is so athletic that at the very least he will be 3rd down guy that could really cause havoc. Bailey looks to be ready to break out as does Justin Houston.
Other than that, Romeo looks to have a plan for the team and the entire TC seems much more organized under him than the past couple of years with Haley. Romeo let's his coaches coach and does a great job of structuring each and every session of practice.
