Quote from: DaveBrown74 on Today at 04:50:06 PMIf a 25 year old rookie running back from an ivy league school and who nobody heard of until a month or two ago makes good in the NFL, it would be a hell of a story, and also one that I'm fairly sure has never happened before, or at least probably not any time in the last 60-70 years.

There's a first time for everything, and it's always fun to root for these underdog/longer shot type guys like Platzgummer, Bryce Ford-Wheaton, Elerson Smith, etc. We'll see what happens. It would be fun to see him somehow make an impact, but I'm not sure I view that as base case.
Elerson Smith and Aaron Robinson are just a couple of what could have been players for this team.

Nice article on Devito



Ryan Dunleavy
 noted that Thibs and Burns are glued to the hip pushing each other to be dominant

And that Dante Miller isn't just depth and has a real shot at RB2 vs Tracy.

Takeaways:

Work was done right outside the redzone doing 7/7 and 11/11 drills

Devin Singletary aka motor grabbed the 1st TD of otas.

Alex Johnson the UDFA from UCLA who led the pac 12 in INTs, impressed during rookie camp and continues to stand out now with the first Int of camp. Don't be surprised if he beats someone for a corner job.

Jones got a little work in 7 on 7 with wandale and nabors

Lock however took the lead for the majority of camp throwing to Nabers and everyone else.

The trio of Burns, Thibs, and Lawrence have really gotten close and are said to be building great chemistry up front.

Dru Phillips and Nubin are rooming together and working through the playbook together. It is said that Nubin has been calling some plays, will be interesting to see if it's him or Bobby OK with the calls

I'm not saying that walking isn't good for you but the truth is that the whole 10,000 steps thing started out as a marketing ploy by a Japanese company selling pedometers.
