Boldin not there due to contract dispute.


Fast tempo. Everything run on a very tight schedule. There's a lot of energy, teammates cheering each other on.

One thing I noticed in the passing drills is there are a lot of deep balls being thrown, which is very exciting to see.

Defensive players look like they can't wait to actually be able to hit someone. They weren't leveling anyone, but they got a few good shots in on some of the wr's and te's.

Navarre didn't look that great. He slipped on his drop and also threw a pick. Was also late throwing to a wr on an out pattern.

McCown was erratic. He would underthrow a deep ball on one play, and then make a nice pass to his the wr in stride.

Warner looked solid. Probably the best of the 3.

Rolle looked okay. He had tight coverage on one play, but Fitz shook him out of his jock on another.

I think I only saw two dropped balls. All the receivers looked pretty good. Bergen looked quick getting down field and made a nice catch in stride.

Bridges was lined up next to Ross in the 7 on 7's, but that's to be expected for now.

Macklin looked sloppy. He got burned on a lot of hook out patterns and looked slow to recover.

It's hard to make any judgements based on what I saw but there was definitely a good tempo and a lot of energy and excitement.

I will be there tomorrow and it will be a fun day to see all of the drills live. I think Syracuse covered most of what went on today. It sucks that Boldin is not there but we have alot of speed at wideout which is what we need. Bergan impressed. I would like to see him alot at TE this season along with Blizzard who is playing in NFLE right now.

These guys haven't played football for a while so a lot of that rust is to be expected. Great to hear that the tempo is good and they all seem hungry for some real action!

Was LJ Shelton at camp?

They didn't make any mention of him. I didn't see him. If I remember correctly, he was excused from minicamp because they're trying to trade him.
