1. I'm leaving here after Monday morning practice, cutting my stay by two days, so others among you must pick up the slack. If you come to camp, please post your impressions.

2. I think Kevin Kasper will not make the team simply because they've put him in the slot. Tall receivers or speed burners do well in the slot. Kasper is neither. He's getting screwed. Hope I'm wrong.

3. The oline may not be as bad as we think. Coach Deek Pollard is a pass rushing specialist and we have great speed WITH bERRY, dOCKETT, Bryant, Pace, King, Antonio Smith, KVB, and our entire LB corps. None of those guys are slow and the scheme is wonderful. This team will improve more on defense than offense. Watch and enjoy. Joe Greene and Marmie were even worse as coaches than we thought.

4. Shaun King was rusty. I'm convinced. He still screws up but the last two days, he's been much sharper. He might be OK as a backup.

5. McCown doesn't trust Gilmore, IMO. Bryan is open and Josh never looks at him but Josh spreads the ball around to everybody else.

6. Competition at RB is fierce and at safety and CB as well. The more I think of it, competition in this camp is fierce at almost every position. More surprise cuts are coming methinks.

Don't get so gloomy, Skkorp. Bobby Engram is 5'10", 188 lbs, and slow. And one of the best slot receivers in the NFL. Josh Reed is 5'10", 208, and not fleet of foot. He's one of the rising stars in the slot. If Kasper can play with the big boys, he'll get his chance.

Joe Greene and Marmie were even worse as coaches than we thought.

Noe some of us! :thumbup:

This is the worst news I've heard since camp started. Your reports have been excellent and I find myself scanning the boards far more often than I should in hopes of finding your latest.

I hope all is well for you, and I appreciate all you've done.

Go Cards!!!

Excellent!

I'm running out of budgeted money - that's why I'm leaving.

Not sure

I'll have any reports but I'll take both cameras and all my lenses and hopefully get some good pics for y'all.
By both I mean my 35 and a digi.

Skorp is one of the reasons I keep coming back. I think all of us would appreciate anyones look while they are up at camp. Any Tidbit is better than no tidbit at all.

Thanks

Anything, by anybody, is worth it.


I'm in the high desert of Central Oregon. I love this site and all the efforts.

Thanks again,
