Have people been watching this stuff on skins.com? I must confess I watch em all--an excellent skins fix in the mid-May duldroms.
Check out the video with Joe Gibbs coaching the WRs--he plays DB in the entire drill that we see--coming to the line to press receivers, falling off into zone. THe guy is definetely in great shape, and it's super cool to see him teaching and coaching these guys.
All in all, very cool, though my wife makes fun of me for wasting time on offseason (not even training camp!) videos... :embarrass
Gibbs as DB (http://www.redskins.com/media/av/avRPPlayer.jsp?dr=7130&kj=13&f2=Day%202%20of%20OTAs:%20Gibbs%20Works%20With%20W Rs&s5=You%20must%20have%20RealPlayer%20to%20watch%20v ideo.)

I'm with you sleep. I just can't get enough of this preseason excitement. Just watching the receivers catch simple passes and the QBs throwing around the pigskin gets me so wired for the upcoming season. And watching Gibbs work just makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.

I gotta say, Campbell looks pretty accurate from what I've seen him do in those videos.

Agreed, Campbell's accuracy appears legit...........it's only the mental aspect and whether he can pick up an NFL system that concerns me. I hope he can, but I'm sceptical.

He really has a nice throwing motion, and his passes are on the money, from what I saw.
I also thought David Patten and Santana Moss looked sharp. Those guys can cut and move. It should be a good influence on Jacobs and McCants as well.

There not much. But still one of the first things I do when I get to work is watch them. It's better then nothing in May! Like you said PSUSkinsfan It's great to see Gibbs runing around out there. I really think he's going to get this thing turned around.

I agree. McCants looked plodding and slow compared to the others, especially Patten.
Wonder if that's what gets him into Gibbs's doghouse? He sure didn't look like he was hauling ass trying to impress...we'll see.

Patten really does look fast........very quick change of direction. With Patten making cuts, Moss burning down the sidelines, and Jacobs coming across the middle, I like our WR situtation more and more. They're not "The Posse", but I think there is a chance they could turn out to be a very good WR corp (if the system is in place for them to succeed).
