D-backs

Champ Bailey: He did ok. It was very good but not what he's capable of. He beat most of his guys but missed a few times. One time he went for the pick and missed and it went for a TD (it was against Rod. I didn't know whether to be happy or upset). He still is the best a jamming them, knocking it away and staying with his guy all over the field. The guys he was covering rarely had a reception. He shoves them around like they're little girls. He had two forceouts.

Lenny Walls: Wow. You can tell its a contract year. He has a fast first step and his foot work in general is excellent. He didn't get faked out and would play real physical at the line. Where he really shined was knocking the ball loose right after the catch. His downfield coverage was still solid. He looks good.

Roc Alexander: Guys this kid is awesome. He had one of the two picks that day. He is so physical at the line and sticks with coverage. He's chomping at the bit. The Coaches were showering him with praise most of the day. Good red zone defense and plays downfield pretty well.

Brandon Browner: He muggs at the line, but he's good at it and does it within the five yards. Didn't see him play downfield too much. He just jammed everyone he was up against and usually won.

Dominique Foxworth: The second pick of the day was this guys. He was excellent all day but got faked out now and again. He plays the ball very well (obviously) and sticks with his man well. He looked really good in zone.

Karly Paymah: He was ok. He missed a lot of plays where they would fake him out.

Curome Cox: Some guy they picked up for training camp and you can tell he needs the money. He made plays all day. He was like a less-good version of Roc Alexander. I don't know anything about him, but he looked real good today.

The Safeties: Lynch and Ferguson looked good. They played a lot of cover two, so it was hard to tell what they are going to do. They did run a 3-3-5 formation with LeSeur as the third safety/nickle back. He was ok.

Running Backs: This was actually less exciting then I would have thought. the main starters are Mike and Taco Bell. Both looked good but Taco broke away to the outside more. No doubt Mike has better ability at moving the pile than Bell. Q looked slow and stiff at first but as he got warmed up he got better and faster. Still cuts ok. Maurice gets bounced around alot and makes dumb mistakes. He's learning. He needs to be better at running downhill. He waits a little too long behond the line and gets swallowed up.

And now...The D
