As recommended by Trackfan. Great suggestion.

Saturday Morning Practice Report:
Got out practice about an hour after it started but there was plenty of action and some changes from last Tuesday. Big George French was working with the first OL group at left tackle. At 6'8, he's got a great wingspan. As a 6th year player, he's ready to start. I think he'll be a big help.
At wide receiver, today was the JJ Henry and Hut Graham show. Both looked very, very good. JJ worked with first group and Hut with second group but we will use 6-8 receivers every game, I think.
The offense "beat" the defense in the various scrimmages today. I really like the linebackers but the d-backs got really tested today by Maverick and the Wide Receivers.
I talked to several of the D-linemen and they are full of confidence. Butler is just huge and he says he is so much better than last year.
As has been discussed elsewhere, there will be an intersquad at the stadium on Saturday the 10th.

Any other Catchatters going over to the Fall Sports Preview this evening at Buffalo Wild Wings? I am driving over for the evening to attend. Just wondering if I need to be watching for any other Catchatters.

By the way, my next fall camp update will be after the intersquad scrimmage on Saturday. Anyone else who has been at practice should tell us what you see.

Don't like hearing our receivers are dropping passes. Catching is not something that should be caused by not practicing (some will say, "it's early, don't worry"). Dropping passes becomes an epidemic.

Loved seeing a report on the 1st scrimmage within hours of it being finished.

Any report on Dylan Howerton, number 66? He was going up and down the stands during the practice--what we used to call running the stands. Maybe recovering from an injury??? He only said a short, "I'll be ready when the time comes."
The practice was generally good with strong showing by the defense but too many dropped passes, some right into perfect hand positions.
Sam Ferguson's young son had a football and when leaving and in the parking lot, I tried to throw him a pass, my first in over 50 years... pitiful, far short, bouncing off the pavement. And when he threw me the ball, I dropped it. So, my verdict was the practice inside the stadium was quite good, but that old guy in the parking lot needs to quit.
