On a stretch run to the right, Barry Cofield ran to his left and prevented Kory Lichtensteiger from blocking him cleanly. Cofield gained penetration and prevented a cutback lane. This scene rarely occurred last summer. London Fletcher talked about this after practice and it’s something that’s been in the practice reports, but the inside ‘backers are running more cleanly to the ball this summer. Curious to see if that continues in games.Read more at the Washington Examiner: http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/nfl/2011/08/practice-report-redskins-analysis-aug-9#ixzz1UZDMIA6g the whole blog is a really good read but the bold really stuck out to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoony Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 John Keim has been on it in general. His blogs provide exactly the kind of detail his target audience is looking for. He obviously works hard-living and breathing skins, making good observations, and being prolific with his write ups. Jason Reid, learn something.

Keim's one of the VERY few good journo's left out there, who put's the leg work in and backs up everything he writes. The Examiner really does **** all over the Post when it comes to reporting. Hail.

zoony Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 19. Leonard Hankerson dropped another pass right in his hands. It’s an issue. Ugh. Just ugh. Could we buy a ****ing break at this position please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unforgiven Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Very good read, was busy today and wasn't able to monitor the tweet thread. It's nice to get a summation of the days practice by someone who knows what they're looking at. I'm really excited about the defense. I have a lot of hope for Kerrigan but that will take time, Cofield, Bowen and Atogwe are what I can't wait to get a look at though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmchairRedskin Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I look forward to Keim's reports. I read them every time he puts one up. I read Rich Campbell's observations as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_Bleed_B&G Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Ugh. Just ugh. Could we buy a ****ing break at this position please? How could you be a Pro WR and drop balls consistently? I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmchairRedskin Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 It might just be the grind of practice for Hank. He might just need live fire to focus. I know he didn't drop many his senior year and he didn't have any drops in the Senior Bowl. Btw, I noticed that Hank had a spectacular game against Clemson last year. I wonder if we were scouting Clemson's D when Hank kept popping up. I belive he had a 7 catch 150 yard day with 3 TD's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Dominion Monarch 06 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 How could you be a Pro WR and drop balls consistently? I don't get it. To his credit he's really only been a pro since the start of training camp. The sky isn't falling............... yet. I am still expecting big things from the kid. He has the tools. Does anyone know if dropped passes were an issue with him at the U? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted, they were an issue for Boldin in college too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sean and Laron show Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 With better talent upfront, and another year in the system for Rocky and London our run defense should be vastly improved. Add in a premier FS in Atogwe our defense can dominate. My body is ready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmchairRedskin Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Actually, drops have always been an issue for Hankerson. Granted, they were an issue for Boldin in college too. I've read several scouting reports that say he had a problem with drops early in his career, but cleaned up the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistertim Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I've read several scouting reports that say he had a problem with drops early in his career, but cleaned up the problem. Yeah, before his Senior year he had problems with drops but he apparently worked like crazy to remedy the issue and it showed in his Senior season. I'm hoping that some of what we're reading is him just being nervous, etc since he has literally only been playing in the NFL in any way for a couple of weeks. Then again, maybe he will just be one of those guys who will make awesome plays but still sometimes drop easy passes. Wouldn't be the end of the world; I can think of a few very good NFL WRs who are like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chump Bailey Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Davis is not a blocker and never will be. He struggled in one-on-one blocking drills vs. the linebackers Monday. This is why Mike Sellers still has a shot to make the team. The only question is, at who's expense? That is a tough question to answer and it's why Sellers can't relax. Sellers pass blocking skills leave a lot to be desired too. IMO, he downright stinks at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Mike Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Ugh. Just ugh. Could we buy a ****ing break at this position please? No ****. The last thing we need is another 50/50 here.

TerpSkin Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 The thing the TS put in bold is one of those things -- is it that our DLine is really good or OL really bad. I mean, we may not have seen our DL beating OL and creating lanes for LBs much last season, but we sure saw Lichtenstieger and our OL getting abused a whole lot last season. Here's to hoping it means our DL is getting good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup they're like 1a and 1b as far as the best bloggers. Good stuff. Don't like what i'm hearing about Horton and Hankerson. Seems like they're lacking focus.
