Some thoughts...
VAPOR TALON vs SUPER BAD
- QB Cooper Batteman demonstrated some nice wheels, running down an LB after he threw a pick. He easily tracked down the LB TWICE (once on the INT, and then a second time after getting juked the first time)
- Was not impressed with the mechanics/way QB Brice Ramsey threw the ball, but he lead a nice methodical drive down the field and didn't have a single incompletion (until the extra point).
- If you have any worries about ATH Jalen Marshall catching any passes, don't be. He caught a few nice ones right across the middle and in plenty of traffic.*
- RB Ezekiel Elliott demonstrated some nice shifty moves. There was one specific play where he caught the ball out in some open space (the flat) and put a nice juke move on the defender to pick up an extra five yards.*
- RB Derrick Green is a LOAD! Dude looked like a linebacker out the replaying RB.
- S Delano Hill was VERY impressive in the secondary. Made a number of pass-breakup plays.*
- RB Ezekiel Elliot made a helluva snag, but unfortunately the ball was thrown too far & out of the end zone, so Elliot wasn't able to drag the foot. He was pretty damn close to getting two feet in tho.*
- CB Jeryl Brazil had a couple nice pass breakups. I believe he's also the kid that ran the fastest 40 yrd dash time too.*
- Wasn't really impressed with either of the QBs - Batteman and Ramsey. Both held onto the football too long and both severely under-threw the majority of their passes.
- RB Ezekiel Elliot again demonstrating some nice hands. He's going to fit that Percy Harvin / Chris Rainey role just fine.*
- ATH Jalen Marshall with ANOTHER nice catch over the middle. He's now been targeted 3x, and 1 of those targets was significantly overthrown. Marshall is going to be fine at WR. He certainly demonstrated he has the hands for it, so don't worry about that.*
- The two most impressive guys that stood out by far (to me) in the Vapor Talon vs Super Bad game were easily S Delano Hill (just an absolute ball hawk) and CB Jeryl Brazil (even had a TD on offense; kid is just insanely fast).
FIELD GENERALS vs ALPHA TALON
- QB Max Browne demonstrating very nice arm strength.*
- QB Tyrone Swoopes really reminded me of Vince Young - very lax throws, kinda nonchalant, nothing special or eye-popping when you see him throw, but VERY comfortable and confident.*
- QB Brown not making very good decisions. Just kinda winging it out there all over the place.*
- S Marcell Harris with his SECOND INT. Dude is a Mack truck back there playing safety, and here has already demonstrated the ability to ball-hawk it. VERY impressed so far w this kid.*
- RB Ryan Green looking very impressive. Already been targeted a couple times. Not sure if it's because of his energy (playing hard), his talent (his speed to get open), or Brown's tendency to check down (a lot).
- S Marcell Harris AGAIN breaking up a play.*
- Wow. QB Swoopes with his THIRD pick, but lucky for him, they blew the whistle due to not releasing the ball in the 4 second allotment. Kid just doesn't know how to make a read just yet.*
- QB Brown throws some BULLETS. Definitely has a VERY nice arm.*
