The RBs were working to block a blitzing LB from getting to the dummy QB. The LBs absolutely owned this drill and Frank Wilson was not happy at all.


Funny, if you read Rosetta's report on TSD, he says the RBs fared well against the LBs, with only Gore struggling and Ryan Baker beating Alfred Blue once. Said that Karnell Hatcher was the least effective blitzing LB. The RBs were supposed to hold the LBs off the QB dummy for 5 seconds. That's a LONG time to have to hold off a blitzer, when most QBs have thrown the ball long before the 5 second mark.

James Wright is going to surprise some people who think Landry and Beckham will automatically jump up the depth chart.

Sounds like he and Boone are sitting a bit prettier and Armand and Fobbs are more at risk.

Remember, if JJ is going to be the QB he has one of the slowest releases around, so the RB's have to give him more time to deliver the ball than it is supposed to take.
