The team looked good Thursday and Friday both. Obviously a lot more hitting on Friday which really got me ready for the season. Here's a few things I noticed.
1. Kevin Garrett looked good. Great wheels and an eye for the ball.
2. A darkhorse CB? Dwight Anderson. He held his own alongside Fisher, Butler, etal.
3. D-lew has put on more weight than any other lineman. He can't be more than 5-10 pounds lighter than Pickett and Kennedy.
4. Speaking of Kennedy, he looked to be getting a better push on the line.
5. Hargrove is quick. If he can pick up on his technique we will see him soon.
6. Curtis' has better hands than some give him credit for. He will be our 3rd this year.
7. A darkhorse WR? Brian Sump. This guy is the size of a chihuahua, but has the quickest first step in camp.
While at camp, I managed 21 autographs for my son (yea, right my son). Ok, really they are for my son, but since he's only 6 months I had to get them for him. And let me say, most of the Rams were pretty nice to the 100 or so fans that waited after practice for signatures. Some really stood out. Pisa T.,
Dane Looker, Andy King, Kevin Garrett, & Grant Williams really impressed me. These guys patiently waited to sign every single autograph that was wanted from them. And did so with a smile. Pisa & Dane even stopped to play with my kid for a couple of minutes. Andy King actually thanked each fan for coming out to practice. But they weren't the only ones that were actively signing. Bulger, McCollum, Chandler, Holsey, Pickett, Bruce, D-Lew, Kennedy, Turley, Arch, Coady, Jensen, Morgan, Little & Polley all signed for anybody that wanted one.
For as great as these guys are on the field, they are equally impressive off the field. My son and I thank them.
