WitP: Colt, Libre, Brashton

Warpath Confidential has a mini-camp note on Colt.

# Brennan to Thomas – Colt Brennan showed some nifty footwork and a little bit of arm as he play actioned on a bootleg to his own right, stopped, and threw a forty-yard strike downfield to the streaking Devin Thomas for the touchdown.

However, Rich Tandler notes that Colt had trouble with consistency.

Another inconsistent day for Colt Brennan. First he completed a nice deep sideline pass to Thomas, who made a bobbling catch. But a little later on, he just couldn’t get the ball out of his hand on consecutive passes, drawing the ire of the coaches.

Daniel Libre has been impressive in Edmonton Eskimos practices.

The Eskimos will get a good look at import running back Daniel Libre, who will see a good share of playing time despite only arriving on Tuesday.

But he has looked impressive so far in practices.

“I think (he has) the athletic ability as far as quickness, being able to stop on a dime, change your directions,” Hall said of the five-foot-eight, 185-pound Hawaii product. “When you look at most small backs that come up here, that’s their attributes, that’s what they do.

“(John) Avery was here, he was built for the CFL with that shiftiness, that ability to make people miss in space. Because of (Libre’s) stockiness and his physical makeup, I think he can be a force running in between the tackles.”

UPDATE: Stephen Tsai has an update on Brashton Satele.

Satele, who signed as an undrafted free agent after his NCAA appeal for an extra year was denied, is listed behind All-Pro Bart Scott and fifth-year pro Lance Lowry at weakside linebacker. But Satele has received significant practice time on special teams and in dime situations.

“It’s great here,” said Satele, who has been invited back for training camp, which begins July 31.

The Jets’ mini-camp ended a couple of days ago, but Satele was encouraged to remain in the area for another three weeks to work out at the Jets’ facilities.
