Well, I'm not sure if Mark sees the better practices or just does a better job of getting some nuggets out of what little we see.

We got to stay out longer today (45 minutes) but still just got only drills. We still haven't seen any 11-on-11 or scrimmage time this spring.

For the most part it was the same stuff we had seen. The OL worked on footwork and shuffling specifically today. They were working a drill where they put there hands behind there backs and focused on using there lower body more to move side to side instead of using their upper body (arms).

They did a lot of special teams again as well. The same group of players were back practicing returning kick-offs. Speedy Noil, Quiv Gonazales, James White, Christian Kirk and Brandon Williams all took reps.

The quarterbacks did their normal footwork drills while throwing into the net with three square targets on it. With more room outside they also practiced throwing fades towards a big net further down the field.

The receivers ran routes without defenders for a while, practicing slants; out-routes and several other basic routes with the QBs throwing to them.

The DL did a couple drills practicing shedding blocks and using their hands better.

They didn't do any live contact drills while we were out there either. As anti-climatic as that is, there wasn't a whole lot to note that was going on out there.

I'll have a photo gallery up shortly.
