Official Training Camp Thread

[blindseyed]

Rookies show up this Wed the 17th, Veterans next Wed the 24th.

Not too early to start the thread, it's that time of year again, share pics and whatever you have.

I do think having a week with the rookies is good on a way to get them adapted, on the other hand the NFL season is a lot longer than college so hopefully this doesn't catch up to any of them come November

 

[DVontel]

Can’t wait to see Byron & Andy go at it. That’s gonna be a battle.

 

[blindseyed]

I know the big names like Kyler will get a lot of attention but I am seriously going to be looking at our O-line a lot this camp to see how they adjust to everything

 

[Solar7]

I expect most of the perspectives on the offense to be pretty well hidden, so I'll be focusing on the defense and what VJ is gonna make us into.

If the defense gets quickly while everyone adjusts to the offense and speed of the NFL, that'll be the way for us to sneak up on some teams.

Positive post. I’m proud of you.

Most impactful training camp battle: Center - Mason "the Future" Cole vs. "Steady" A.Q. Shipley
Most impactful training camp battle (Defense Edition): Cornerback - Tremaine Brock vs. Byron Murphy

What I'll be looking for at the Red/White Scrimmage: Tempo. Practice seemed sluggish with Steve Wilks; lots of guys were standing around and waiting/watching. Huge difference from Bruce Arians. I don't expect this offense to run at 100 miles per hour at all times, but I think we'll play with tempo at times, which means that it's essential for the starting OL to be fit. You don't rotate offensive linemen in the NFL like you can in college.

Flashiest group: Wide Receivers
Trashiest Group: Inside Linebackers

Keep an eye on: Budda Baker's alignment during 7-on-7 and 11-on-11. It's essential to know whether he'll be the primary slot cornerback or primarily in a traditional FS role.
Don't be distracted by: QBs running free on "broken plays."

Chase Edmonds at Center?

The biggest plus would be to come out of camp with no serious injuries. I initially thought the Cards might go vanilla and expose nothing. Now, however, since the chance of playoffs is remote I think they’re better to let it all hang out giving the players as much experience as possible in the new systems. On defense I wouldn’t show the blitz packages even in preseason.

All questions we've all been asking too lol, I think we'll get a good feel for what the offense will be over the preseason, not all of it but a pretty good idea

I know the early comments from players through OTAs is that K2 runs a fast practice and doesnt waste time. He has a certain number of snap counts as the objective.

 

[Goldfield]

Can’t wait...

 

[JeffGollin]

As always, I'll be looking for "surprises" - the UDFA who comes out of nowhere to challenge for a roster spot. The veteran newcomer who earns a regular place on the roster.

And how this summer's crop differs from last year's lackluster group - schematically and in levels of energy.

Just got my club invite for Tuesday the 30th.

I'm super excited about Kevin White. He could wildly thrive in the kind of offense he's been missing. He's the package I think is missing in the WR room.

He’s walking glass.

 

[Solar7]

He’s walking glass.

No doubt, but walking glass with essentially zero investment, who has insane potential talent, especially having thrived in this offense before. We'll be keeping plenty.

There's some of that optimism that we've been missing Solar7. I'm hopeful for him as well.

Surely, out of this pack of WRs we have on the roster currently, we can get three or four NFL-level players onto the field when we need to (in contrast to last year).

 

[Ronin]

The player that I am most curious about is Zach Allen. I hope he does well.

 

[JeffGollin]

I'm kinda eager to see how Isabella fits into the new offensive scheme. On face, he appears to have a unique skill set that could create unique challenges for most defense.

I'm also hoping that Murphy is good enough to make up for PP21's absence during the first 6 weeks.

 

[MadCardDisease]

I can't wait to see all of the new toys out on the field in action. Very hopeful that a few of these rookies can be immediate contributors this season.
