Road Trip! Denver Broncos Training Camp 2008

Wish I lived closer to there. Maybe I’ll be closer next season.

...to hear about what you take in from training camp! I would love to be able to be there a couple of days. I say next year, let’s plan a road trip or something!

vote for that option here. :) I am most interested in all facets of training camp. Guru, you cannot sleep, you cannot rest, you cannot take a bathroom break… lol I’m just playing, but every one of those options above interest me greatly, so whatever wins out…. ;)

to hear your takeaways from camp. Have so much fun (as if you needed me to tell you!) I voted rookies, as I think a few of them will need to step up for this year to be a successful one.

I didn’t see anything about the D-Line, though, which I think HT has finally forced me to be a bit afraid about… Would love a report on how that group is looking.

Of specific note:
How is Ek looking, healthwise?
Where is Powell running (1st team, 2nd, etc.)?
How is Moss’s recovery going?

Thanks for giving us a chance to live vicariously!

Wish I lived closer to Denver so I could meet ya there. Guess I’ll have to settle for my HOF trip. If you say hi to Jay for me, I’‘ll say hi to John for you :)

Semi-related, but I am looking forward to going to Jets camp next year when they move into Jersey. Even though I am not a Jets fan (obviously), I am interested to see what training camp looks like first hand.

But in terms watching the competition at one specific spot…I think WR will be the most interesting.

The offer for beer still stands…I live pretty close to Dove Valley and will be attending a good number of practices.

How do I get of those “latest and greatest MHR T-shirts”?

...Colbert vs. Jackson competition goes for #2 WR. But that’s a close second. As an observer biased towards defense, I would love to watch Niko and Boss execute their assignments in camp.

Thanks to Guru for spending his time and money providing us with an expert view at camp. We’ll get a far better report than from any media group anywhere!

But I woke up this morning with a serious yen for football season. Have fun, Guru!

Well, that’s what Training Camp is to me.

As the QB is to the offense, MLB is to the defense. That is the position that intrigues me the most at this point. I believe Koutouvides is going to do a great job. For the sake of the entire defense, I hope so.

And from a pure groupie standpoint, I want to hear about FAST EDDIE!! :)

Do have a safe trip, Guru. You have become pretty special, I think for all of us.

Ramsey basically blows right now. That Hckney is doing a great job. Would it be a tragedy if Ramsey was cut and Hackney won the back up position?
If JC goes down this year no matter who is at Qb the season will be a tough one

will attempt to get together to make at least the two practices on 8/12. I will send a report on my impressions. Is there anyone else who wants to join us? The more the merri better. (I can no longer use that word) I thought the two scrimmages with Dallas were going to be open to the public. They are not. I am going to try to devise some way to sneak in. How do we get the latest and greatest MHR T-shirt? I miss one radio broadcast and the world goes by!

My thing on Woodyard …. he has a head for the game, and he has enough speed. I am not into the whole size thing, but Woodyard is not a hard tackler. He tends to hand on to guys to bring them down, rather than hit them. That is going to be a problem in the NFL where guys are much stronger than in college.

Another point of the whole size/speed issue. Gold and Al were small, but they was very very fast. Woodyard is small, but he isn’t that fast. Small LB’s have a short shelf life, but since Woodyard is a CFA that won’t be a big issue.
