[quote=freddyg12;571085]great news. I know it's just camp & the first day at that, but those guys need to start showing something immediately & looks like they're doing so.[/quote]

Seriously. Having Devin and Four Alarm Freddy both catch 50 yarders in the first session is a great sign.

And SmootSmack is probably doing a jig up there in Bristol upon the news that Chase Daniel threw a 50 yard TD. That man-crush is in full bloom. :)

[quote][B]QB Brennan improves delivery[/B]: Redskins second-year passer [URL="http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/players/playerpage/1245555"]Colt Brennan[/URL] is off to a hot start in training camp thanks to his altered delivery. No longer throwing at a three-quarters angle, Brennan is bringing the ball high and releasing from above his head, making for sharper, tighter throws. Brennan was the Skins' seventh-round pick in last year's draft and could unseat [URL="http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/players/playerpage/1009"]Todd Collins[/URL] as the backup to [URL="http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/players/playerpage/407793"]Jason Campbell[/URL] with a good camp.

Hopefully he'll beat out Collins. :)

Apparently none of the rookies are allowed to wear helmets with the Redskins logo on them. Gotta earn it. I like that.

Yeah Urban Meyer does the same thing at Florida. Freshman aren't allowed to wear anything Orange & Blue whatsoever during two-a-days.

I like that too. I had been wondering since I think they had logos through minicamps/ota's

On ESPN980, Frank said Chris Samuels said, unsolicited, that the feeling is Jason Campbell has about 6 games to prove himself this season...

I'm no record as not being a firm beleiver in Campbell, but i dont think we have anything on our roster that would be an upgrade over Campbell to make switching after 6 games worthwhile. After 12 games, yeah, i might put Brennan in to see what he's got, but 6 games is FAR shorter of a leash than i think Campbell should get. I mean, if he's single-handedly losing games for us, then yeah, we've got to yank him. But Campbell isnt the type of QB who's going to singlehandedly lose games.

I know Samuels is not the HC, but he's probably the only player who could say something like this and it would actually carry some weight. I mean, Samuels isnt the kind of guy to just run his mouth like CP.

Please Bro, don't kid like that.

Re: Training Camp Updates:
 

The skimmy is that RAK is texting team-mates saying, "he will not be far behind." I think he'll be there soon enough.

Re: Training Camp Updates:
 

I don't get why Samuels would say this on the first day of camp...we haven't heard anything specific from the FO, Zorn etc and then, boom, JC has 6 games to prove himself? And what if the o-line falls apart in 4 games instead of 8 this year? Does that fall on JC's shoulders too? I'm sick of the "QB controversy" Snyder/Cerrato have created this off-season...I just want JC to have all the support he deserves.

So how many games does the offensive line has to prove themselves as well?
