Spring Practice 2016 News & Notes

[OldJacketFan]

Good grief....what are they feeding their kids? Mathew has blown up (was already big) and it's not obvious he's the little brother anymore.

Anything and everything! I went through that with my son Matthew is getting huge!!!!

Per AJC (quoting CPJ) Simmons will be coming back and will be eligible. Thank God. . . one of my favorite players on this D.

That picture of Vic is crazy. . . I wouldn't want to be a BBack with 9 or 40 playing mike. those are some bad dudes

Thought I saw him at a back in the video.

 

[Dottie1145]

Couple of takeaways from the Gaudin video. 1-Lynn is a freak of an athlete, if he can make that transition he can be a star. 2-Step Durham looks like a tank!!

I saw 4 of the 5 OL on their bellies as the play was moving away from them. None of them had the D with them on the ground. One wiffed on the trailing end. Not what we want to see.

That might have been by design, depending on what part of practice this is from. Notice too how all the DL back away at the snap. I wouldn't read too much into it. it was probably more an exercise in knowing the assignments and working on the first step for the linemen.

AJ Gray lays a big hit on an AB (either Lynch or Green) in this video!

 

[Whiskey_Clear]

Ya...some OL end up face down...but the OL whipped the DL on that play. The right side got push downfield and the left side pushed or took down their guys in the scrum. Just my 2 cents.

 

[Whiskey_Clear]

Also looked like the ?RT? Just missed a block on a backer in the 2nd level at the end of the play.

 

[Longestday]

I think he makes the block on one and another comes though....

 

[Whiskey_Clear]

Agree.

Lynch was running and Lynn was blocking Gray. Gray pushed off Lynn's block and made the tackle.

From AJC -
"As of Saturday, the first-string line consisted of Will Bryan and Trey Klock at the tackles, Andrew Marshall and Griffin at the guard spots and walk-on Michael Muns at center. Center Freddie Burden, a two-year starter, is sitting out the spring after hand surgery earlier in the offseason."

 

[Oldgoldandwhite]

Good practise for the back up centers. I can remember one year when I cringed every time our starting center went down.
