I think we need to get a thread going here for observations on the open practices.  I'll start, with a few random thoughts from last night's practice:

- Noticed a good number of downhill running plays, several of which resulted in about 5-yard gains.

- I agree that the backup QBs look even at this point.  Connor Wood does look like a quintessential QB, but Case is much more developed physically than Colt was at his age.

- Keenan Robinson was playing great, and seemed to have a great attitude as well.

- Mike Davis got some reps with the first group.

- Nolan Brewster looked like he wasn't feeling well.  In fact, a few of players seemed wiped out from the heat and insane humidity.

- Didn't see anything impressive from Chiles or Kirkendoll, but Goodwin and M. Williams looked good (despite a Williams drop. . .)

- Christian Scott had a couple of impressive hits, until Mack drew him aside presumably to say "ease off on your teammates!"  The dude is gonna be awesome.  So is Aaron Williams, who looked fantastic.

- Timmons showed ability to get open against the second group.

- Okafor is an impressive physical specimen.

- Gideon is obviously a great leader.
