Re: Washington Post: Redskins Training Camp Observations
Ryan Kerrigan was saying recently how he and Brian Orakpo had to go up against Trent Williams in practice. If that doesn't prepare Trent Williams for the better OLBs and DEs in the league then nothing will.

Re: Washington Post: Redskins Training Camp Observations
Sounds like Rak and Kerrigan are the ones getting an education so far in camp. TW has been in beast mode.

Re: Washington Post: Redskins Training Camp Observations
The Williams/Orakpo battles sound like they are really, really good. Rak is apparently in the backfield often but it doesn't soulnd like most of them are off Williams. Rather, it sounds like the two of them are absolutely dominating any one else they go against. Men against boys as it were. Williams apparently was handling Kerrigan - who I think we can agree is no slouch - easily.
I think that is excellent news.

Re: Washington Post: Redskins Training Camp Observations
Yes. D. Ware is better than Brian Orakpo. More specifically i was just trying to say that our starting left tackle should be better than our ROLB. His performance has a greater impact on the game, and he was drafted high because of it.

Practice report: Special RG3 edition - Rich Tandler's Real Redskins
Man I hope they increase the number of attempts per practice. 11 passes during force on force scrimmage doesn't seem like a lot. Get that volume up baby! |

Re: Washington Post: Redskins Training Camp Observations
Trent Williams should be able to hold off Orakpo and Kerrigan simply because he's bigger and stronger than both of them. But going up against the two of them helps him prepare for the Trent Coles, Osi Umeyonoria's, Demarcus Wares of the NFL, then this is the type of push he needs.

Re: Washington Post: Redskins Training Camp Observations
Took the drive down to Ashburn 8/1/12 and this is what I saw with the untrained eye.
IT WAS HOT. Fletch & Kerrigan had the day off. TW does look really good had a play were he rode Riley out and just pushed him to the floor like a rag doll. Lo Ax looks good, made nice INT of RG3 and tried to run him down on a 30 yard TD run should've taken a better angle. Hank looks good don't see any hint that still has an injury. RG3 threw 2 INT's the 2nd one Hall stepped in front of the receiver, ball slightly under thrown. RG3 is fast I mean FAST. Cousins looks good made some nice throws. OL is coming along there trying or maybe our DL just might be that good. DL looks BIG & PHYSICAL. Robinson made some nice catches you can see the speed. Niles looks good. Moss looks fast. Hall is SMALL please don't complain about him not being a physical CB. Banks is looking focused on making team as WR. Rex came out on the field wearing a sleeve and started throwing like RG3 from the sidelines it looked funny and you could see/tell RG3 found it FUNNY as well. This is what I saw from my untrained eye. Please forgive grammar & punctuation. If you have any questions on other players post them & If I can answer I will. There was so much going on. Had a GREAT time was well worth the drive, I beleive we are moving in the right direction. |
