KRL Camp Notes (8/1/15)

General Notes

- First day in full pads

- Practice ran for 2.5 hours

- Willie Colon was full go and took reps with the #1 OLine
at RG. Kevin Vickerson and Stevan Ridley are still out

- Jace Amaro "tweaked" his knee in drills against "air". It
looked serious because he spiked the ball in anger but he
shook it off and participated in the rest of practice

- Maccagnan made an appearance with his ever present Starbucks
cup

- Bowles concentrated on the offense particularly when Gailey
was going over blitz pickup

- Offensive emphasis was on the running game today

- Offense won the competition period today because the defense
did pushups at the end of practice


Player Notes

- With the pads on 1 on 1 blocking drills made an appearance.
Standouts were:

* Demario Davis, blowing up anyone during his reps
* Quincy Enunwa
* Jace Amaro, improved blocker who controls the defender well
once he gets his hands on them
* Jeff Cumberland, not as hideous as years past
* IK Enemkpali, violent bull rusher
* Darrelle Revis, delivered blows so hard you thought a LB
delivered them
* Wes Saxton, much better than his scouting report, functional
* Taiwan Jones, delivered blows like an ILB should

- Good jobs by a couple of UDFA's today Wes Saxton, Taiwan Jones
and Julian Howsare. Saxton's blocking was good and he's caught
everything. Jones was excellent in run defense today. And
Howsare got a "sack" of Ryan Fitzpatrick during 11 on 11's

- This isn't sexy but there should be a legitimate battle at
punter. Jacob Schum showed good leg strength and if he can be
more consistent than Ryan (Sir-Shanksalot) Quigley I would
keep him

- Dee Milliner was full go today and looked good during his reps.
His best play was a breakup of a 30+ yard pass from Ryan Fitzpatrick
to Walter Powell

- We started to see the Bowles multiple safety looks from ARZ today.
On some dime looks we had 3 CB's and 3 S's (Marcus Gilchrist,
Calvin Pryor & Antonio Allen)

- Solid day for Gilchrist supported the run well and decent in
coverage

- Rontez Miles had a couple of big hits during 9 on 7 running drills

- More interesting formations from Gailey, today he deployed Eric
Decker & Brandon Marshall in double slots in a 4 WR set

- With Devin Smith out Chris Owusu & TJ Graham are getting more
reps. Owusu had a nice 35+ yard catch from Geno Smith over Cro.
And Graham had a tough juggling catch over Revis during red zone
drills

- During 11 on 11 drills Bryce Petty hooked up with Quincy Enunwa
on a 40+ yard TD over Dexter McDougle

- Leonard Williams showed his ability to anchor against the run
today. Was able to hold his ground even when double teamed


QB Notes

- Geno Smith continued his good play. He had multiple TD's during
7 on 7 and red zone drills. His best play was getting the defense
to show their blitz, checking out of the play and hitting Owusu
for a 35+ yard catch over Cro that I mentioned before. His
chemistry/communication with Marshall is excellent. In one instance
when the defense took away an inside route Smith threw a back
shoulder throw and Marshall seemed to "expect it"

- Fitzpatrick had his solid moments but for a vet whose been in this
offense he was too sloppy. Twice he fumble snaps from center and
once he turned the wrong way on a handoff and the RB wasn't there


Standouts

- Geno Smith
- Chris Owusu
- Brandon Marshall
- Marcus Gilchrist
- Taiwan Jones
- Leonard Williams
