Ok, to sum up what I saw anyway on whopping day 5 of camp:
QB's:
In the QB drills both Stanzi and Quinn made some poor passes.
All 3 QB's made overthrows on fades but the WR's weren't really giving an all out effort. Both Cassel and Quinn's passes I thought could have been caught with more effort
7-7 Cassel owned. Quinn had some flashes but Cassel made some great passes. I think one was overthrown and 1 or 2 were just defensed really well. I didn't watch Stanzi as he was at the other end of the field but when I did it was just hand offs.
11-11 Cassel owned again. Some very sweet passes. Some in tight coverage, some put where only a WR like Baldwin could go up and get it. Quinn didn't look too bad but his accuracy wasn't there but there reads were good, I thought. Stanzi again looked mediocre with I thought his best plays being when he used his legs.
WR's:
Baldwin is a ****ing beast. Plain and ****ing simple, Baldwin is a ****ing beast. No, he is not a beast...he is a magnetic beast. Everything near him was caught. Bowe better wake up cause I think this guy can run him out if that's what it comes down too.
Breaston had a sweet TD catch.
Dex had a couple good catches.
Copper dropped a sure TD. Had it in his hands and didn't pull it in. It was a good pass from Quinn,
TE's:
Really only wathed Boss and he is going to be an excellent addition to this team. Guy has hands and seems to be a good "tweener" that can run the more traditional TE routes.
Defense:
1-1 drills both Hali and Houston were on. They hit and the blockers couldn't shake em'. Houston looked pretty decent in pass coverage as well.
Flowers had some nice plays tonight. Broke up a couple passes including a slant which is arguably one of the hardest routes to defend.
Poe....I didn't get to see much of Poe but what little I did see looked very promising. I saw him in a 1-1 drill and he was shoving the blocker back pretty good like. Saw him in a base and nickel. In the base he seemed to get a decent push but Quinn roled out, not sure if by design or not? In nickel he took on 2 blockers and while they held him off he was not knocked off the play from what I could see.
Concerns:
QB is a major concern if Cassel goes down. Cassel looked great save he still tends to stare down receivers but his throws and reads were excellent tonight. quinn had some flashes but accuracy worried me with him. Stanzi just didn't look that impressive. A lot of his throws were just bad in drills and what I saw of him in 11-11. He got picked once and almost got picked twice.
The O-line still concerns me but this could be my being new to TC. In 11-11 if they were allowed to sack the QB it looked like Cassel would have been on his ass a couple times. Although on the TD he threw to Baldwin up top he stepped up in a nice pocket. I don't know how hard the lines really go at it with each other?
Hudson had a bad snap and though it's early that can't happen. I don't know if it was our D-line beasting or our O-line being soft but it just appeared that if sacks were allowed there would have been a few on both Cassel and Quinn with no fault on the QB. The d-line just seemed to penetrate.
It's only day 5 and you can tell guys are still getting their legs. The practice seemed to be organized, however and RAC let the coaches coach. I didn't see him getting involved with a lot other than the defense.
