Lexusduck, a long-timeDuck fan and frequent contributor to the comments section of The Duck Stops Here, sends along an update from today’s full pads afternoon practice:
Well practice was pretty sweet, I’m going to give my rundown since Dale wasn’t there. My first thought was…who is #75? I was 3 ft from him, turns out that’s Euscher. That guy really stood out in terms of size. Dion Jordan wins the ‘most athletic looking in pads’ trophy. Kiko is absolutely huge, I can see why someone was so frightened by his unwanted presence at 3am!
The practice is about to begin and what do I see on twitter? ‘Seastrunk will transfer!’ I was asking anyone in shouting distance, and sure enough #15 was missing. Safe travels Lache, thanks for the summer of grief. NOW on to the field.
-Big Heimuli is easily the biggest D-lineman and he was moving well. A good sign. Turner has really bulked up. Coach Azz is entertaining.
-WR Vaughn looked like he had been playing for us for years, crisp routes and elite speed.
-I couldn’t tell if Huff played.
-Mariota is already as big, if not bigger than DT. I think he will shine one day soon.
-#17 is a number you should get used to. I think some call him the ‘Momba’. I saw what everyone else was seeing, he caught everything his way. I ended the practice by watching DAT juke 3 guys moving left on a run that would’ve gone for 25+ yards. Get your popcorn ready!
If you haven’t attended a practice, do it.
