Warriors in the Pros: Colt, RGM, Ikaika

Here's video of another "throw-crap-at-the-QB" drill that Colt Brennan and the other Washington Redskins QBs ran through in training camp today. Looks like they're having fun.



Thanks to 4uhfan, who also finds these quotes from Colt about the drill.

Colt Brennan: “We’d done something like that in college, but this was kind of a barrage. I’ve never had six bags thrown at me at one time.”
Was Coach feeling sinister? “Ah, Coach Zorn just always wants to keep it loose and fun. They’re soft bags, and we’ve got these big pads and everything.”

Here's a photo of Colt dodging the barrage, which comes from this ExtremeSkins.com photo thread.



Great news for Ryan Grice-Mullen, who has a tryout with the Chicago Bears.

With his flowing dreadlocks, from a distance he looked like Devin Hester walking into the dining hall at Olivet Nazarene University Thursday morning.

It wasn't the holdout wide receiver but another pass catcher.

Ryan Grice-Mullen is here for a free-agent workout today. The Hawaii wide receiver went undrafted in April and was signed by the Houston Texans. He was released June 13 and never participated in OTA's because of a leg injury. The Bears can check out to see if he is healthy now.

Let's hope he's fully healed and can show what he can do.

And Ikaika Alama-Francis performed well in the first day of Detroit Lions training camp. From Tom Kowaski's first impressions of camp:

In the one-on-one pass rush drill, it was obvious that Ikaika Alama-Francis has spent some time working on his inside counter moves. He still has a long way to go, but his technique is better. These one-on-one drills will be important for Alama-Francis because he has to build up some confidence with his pass rush.

And from the Birk's Eye View blog:

In his first one-on-one of the day, rookie Gosder Cherilus set too deep and got beat inside by second-year end Ikaika Alama-Francis.
