Sorry this is so late but some family issues came up last night and I wasn't able to work on this. Didn't even get to have my Scotch. Oh the horror!
Got to meet up with @RamBall and his wife. Always good to see them. He'll be there on Thursday along with @bubbaramfan and myself.

Our receivers are very good. I'm particularly impressed with Puca. Much bigger than anticipated. He looks like he already knows the routes, can gain separation and has a quickness and some fight in him. Trammell is another who impressed along with D. Robinson. I keep pounding the table to Tutu. He had his opportunities and didn't disappoint. An over the outside shoulder in the corner of the end zone on a frozen rope from Stafford resulted in a TD. Clean separation and had two steps on I believe it was Fuller. Didn't see the Kupp injury but he was what we have come to expect.
QB's are rated as 1, 2 and then some guys. Stafford and Bennett are the guys. Winn and Rypien are scout team quality although I do give the nod to Rypien over Winn. Both Stafford and Bennett had some opportunities to scramble and Bennett is far more maneuverable. Not too many deep balls today so arm strength couldn't be judged for distance. Anticipation was very good from both as was accuracy. Stafford made a medium deep throw to Atwell cutting to the left sideline. Great throw, great route. Only problem Tutu was double covered and his size was not in his favor. Ball was batted away. Maybe next time.
If you check out my album at Google Photo's, you'll see I focused a lot on the interior O line, particularly Steve Avila. I hope the sequences I took are posted the in the correct order so you can see the plays developing.
Avila looks like a rookie. He was used at right and left guard. It seemed his feet were getting out of position a lot. He did pick up a stunt by the DE and LB, while playing left guard, very well and that saved a sure sack.
Bruss was used at right tackle and was also a little weak there. Footwork and balance seemed to be the issue.
Even Noteboom had some bad moments as he manned the left tackle position. Our offensive line is a concern. They need all the reps they can get together in order to start jelling.
The defense is a bit behind the offense at this point but that is the norm for this point in camp. Can't say anyone stood out on the D but them again, wasn't looking to hard at them.
Our place kicker, #49 Brown missed at least one if not two from the mid 40 yard range during 11 on 11. Punter #42 Evans got his punts off in time and they were well placed inside the 20 and close to the sidelines. He looks solid.
This was all from memory as I didn't take any kind of notes. I know I forgot some things I wanted to point out but...maybe next time. Take care and we'll talk later.
