Rookie Mini Camp: Day One-Practice One

This is the first time the rookies are practicing with the team. Don’t get to worked up over good or bad reports.

————————-

Impressive:

  • Hakeem Nicks– Came out “polished”, and looked the part. Nicks made some nice snags and showed he definitely could be on the field from day one. (side note: he couldn’t fit into XXXXL size gloves….WOW)
  • Ramses Barden– Showed nice long stides while running his routes. Caught the ball well.
  • Rhett Bomar-Had great zip on the ball. Flashed nice ability and outperformed last years pick Andre’ Woodson.
  • DeAndre Wright/ Stoney Woodson– Looked fluid in coverage and forced alot of no throws by the Qb’s when both were on the field at the same time.
  • Alex Fields- The 6’7 UFA defensive end was able to get some pressure on the QB. He also did a nice job of holding his positon in running plays

Disappointing:

  • Andre’ Woodson- Was “outplayed” a bit by Bomar. Started of practice slow but did pick it up as practice went on.
  • Vince Anderson- The UDFA cornback made a few plays but was mostly beat in coverage for most of practice.
