They are getting battered by our DLine, can't wait till that DLine gets to batter our opponents.

Re: Training Camp Updates:

Under the watchful eye of Jim Zorn and Chris Meidt, the quarterbacks gathered at midfield and took turns throwing the ball into a small hoop in he middle of a net.
The drill tested quarterback accuracy, both in the pocket and on the move.
Jason Campbell was the least accurate, missing the hoop in the net on four throws that I saw.
Colt Brennan did the best, nailing the throw in the hoop on two occasions.
Todd Collins hit on one of his throws, as did Chase Daniel.
Colt Brennan’s first throw of 11-on-11s is a crisp pass to Marko Mitchell.
Anthony Alridge, giving up a lot of size given his 5-9, 175-pound frame, is able to slow a blitzing Chris Wilson in the backfield. Brennan scrambles left to avoid Wilson’s blitz and decided to run with the ball.
Colt Brennan rolls right and quickly throws to Fred Davis, who catches the ball at the 2-yard line and swerves into the end zone.
Brennan drops back to pass and seems to hesitate. He starts to roll right again. This appears to draw the ire of Jim Zorn: "What are you looking for?"
Probably had a misread on the last one but otherwise Not a bad day for Colt.

From Redskins.com Twitter...

Best play of practice: Jason Campbell lets one fly and Antwaan Randle El is wide open. He catches it for a long TD, earning applause.

Sweet...

In terms of Campbell's performance, I'm totally chill. I think he's the best QB we have. I just don't think he had a paricularly good day, even when you take the O-line into account. Remember that the pass rushers run past and play continues, so even when the O-line got blown it was still basically a 7 on 7 drill.
Great...then the rest of the league's D-lines (except for the NJ Giants) will be a piece of cake.

Our o-line gets to practice against one of the best defenses in the NFL...that's beneficial, or it should be.

That's a positive. The problem is that the D lines in Philly and Dallas are very good too.

Did he catch it in stride or did he have to wait on it?

Re: Training Camp Updates:

ARE wide open, did the defender fall down or was it a blown coverage?

Good Twitter post by Rick Maese...

So what do they do with the open roster spot? I say, audition the biggest fan at tomorrow morning's practice for spot on the offensive line.

What happened is JC dropped back and started looking all around for an open WR. After about 10 seconds the man covering ARE falls to the ground and after ARE started jumping up and down while waving his arms JC finally spotted him. He throws the ball his way but its way over thrown so ARE chases it down and catches the ball in stride.

Re: Training Camp Updates:

Minnesota Vikings to trade or release WR Aundrae Allison - TwinCities.com

I was reading this article and I think we should definitely take a look at this guy, who could compete for the #5 WR. If we signed him we could release Willams who isn't going to be ready until 4-6 wks and give us another available roster spot to sign a vet OL.

This kid has some serious return skills

I think he's already been waived

Re: Training Camp Updates:

Getting hurt is a blow to Mike Williams. He needs time on the field as much as anyone.
