2 pics for Perkins. Sounds like the title of a movie.

Long intercepted wolford. Return 50 yds for TD.

Sounds like he needed that tape.

1Robinson putting on a clinic against 6 Kendrick.

Jordan’s tweet makes it sound like a good bat5le. If the rookie is competing we may have a player.

Good, we are going to need him and his speed.

But can he pancake an LB?...waiting for that report....

 

[OldSchool]

This new corner seems kind of lost out there, I'm very worried

I’m of the school of thought that this is bad news.

We saw what Allen looked like next to an undersized guard in 19. I know Allen is better.. but I think having less beef next to him is bad.

Shelton played some decent football when he had to play. Not ideal he starts over Bruss, but we have to have faith that McVay will put the best guys out there. And the other thing to consider is maybe Shelton has improved and hit a new level and this isn't just a complete indictment on Bruss.

If Shelton maintains the starting RG post then Snyder/Kolone/Brewer's chances to make the team either as a MR53 or one of those swingers back & forth positions in the Practice Squad.

Could be that 2 out of the 3 above make it.

If Logan Bruss is being pushed into a reserve position somewhere like into a swing RT/RG reserve position it may affect those OT's' ability to make the team.

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, (you too merlin). It was a very spirited day today. Met up with VRF, had our customary barley pop and made it to the stands when the boys were just coming out. First thing we noticed was the punt machine out there and Kyreen Williams and Powell out there shagging punts. Williams was a full go and participated in 7 on 7 and 11 on 11 with the 2nd team. I liked what I saw. Not enough to have an opinion, but good to know he'll be playing in pre-season games.

Bobby Evans was back out there with the 2nd team at LT. Didn't see Chris Garrett. AD was there for stretching and warmups but I didn't see him take a snap. They played a lot of the backup guys at DL and DE today so maybe why they were off. Benton Whitley, Jake Hummel, Elijah Garcia, Keir Thomas and Brayden Thomas got a lot of snaps with the 2nd team. Garcia and Whitley stood out to me.
Warren Jackson was out there. I think this is his first day of participation. good to see him back.

Stafford was out there but didn't throw much. They ran a lot of 7 on 7 and 11 on 11. Wolford ran the 1's, and Perkins the 2's. I was hoping to see some of Perez but he only warmed up the wr's.

Haven't seen a lot from Hopkins but he made a couple nice grabs. Atwell continues to make good plays. He gets open and catches everything. Best play of the day 50yd bomb from Wolford for TD in traffic. Higbee with a very good day. Perkins with another couple of picks. He threw his longest pass of TC, about 45yds, it was a real rainbow with 3 DB's centering under it to make the pick and BAM!, who comes up with it? Atwell. Crowd loved it.

The starters on both sides of the ball look very good. Only guy I have concerns with is Shelton as RG. He knows what hes doing, hand placement, traps, zone, he just is the smallest guy on both OL and DL. I guess in Pre-season we'll see ho he holds up. (If McVay even plays him).

They cancelled Wed. so tomorrow is the last day of open TC. With such a workout today I don't expect much 11 on 11.

I'm very pleased by the Rams Training Camps this year. Compared to last TC, I think this is a better team. Certainly a deeper roster with better players backing up the starters. Linebacking, and defensive backs are better than last year. Noteboom looks great and the OL is deep. This team will go deep into the playoffs, barring injury at key positions.

Of course position depth and cuts won't be sorted out til after pre-season games.

Til tomorrow folks.

I hear you! I think Shelton can be okay.. I think at the same time that it’s pretty clear Bruss is the better prospect.. bigger.. long arms, massive hands.. etc.

I want the bigger and stronger guy to win those position battles.. especially when one of the guys is undersized for the position.

Not gonna lie I'm a bit disappointed that Bruss isn't showing well enough and I take it as being more Bruss than Shelton. But you're right it could be Shelton stepping up in the opportunity.

Good thing is we should get a look at Bruss in preseason if he's getting left behind in the starter race. No reason to hold him out at that point.

I don't think of this as a hit on Bruss so much as I believe no-one comes close to Coleman Sheldon as our most complete & versatile interior offensive lineman, he without a doubt is leading the pack as our #1 swingman in the middle. jmo.

I am officially no longer concerned about Tutu.

 

[CGI_Ram]

I still think Bruss is our week 1 starter.

This is McVay’s way of making sure Shelton knows he’s starter material. Shelton’s versatility is more important in reserve.

 

[bubbaramfan]

I'm not either Merlin, Atwell had another great day. I think he caught more balls than anyone else today. He gets open and catches everything thrown his way.

 

[Loyal]

Ummm

 

[Merlin]

Staff will look that LB off. He'll be over in the corner with the cheerleaders.
