NFL Pre-season rookies
Some tidbits from NFL news on PSU rookies
Sean Lee - 8 Tackles, 3 Solo, 1 TFL Apparantly he knows how to play this game.
From Blogging the Boys
-- Sean Lee entered the game early after Keith Brooking hurt a shoulder. Lee showed the ballyhooed instincts. He made or assisted on the tackle on four of his first five plays. When the Chargers were trying to come back late in the 4th quarter, Lee blew up the 3rd down play by flying in off the right end to trip the running back for no gain. On 4th-and-1, Lee stuffed the fullback in the hole and stopped the runner cold.
Josh Hull - 8 Tackles, 7 Solo - Best of a poor tackling Rams defense. Looking good as back up to Laura Naitis.
Navorro Bowman -3 Tackles, 3 Solo First preseason action, battling shoulder injury
Mike likes Bowman:
"He is a physical guy, much more physical than I thought he was," Singletary said. "I didn't know if he would be able to play inside. He was a thick looking guy when I saw him at the combine, but I wasn't sure. The film had me going back and forth because he was never really inside, he was never really outside. He was more outside than he was inside. When he got here, we realized he was thick enough, he was quick enough - really a unique guy because he has a lot of flexibility which is sort of ironic because I heard prior to getting him that he was kind of a stiff guy, but he moves really well."

Same old, same old for JO according to thephinsider.com
-I really like the depth that Miami's defensive line has..... Jared Odrick took on double teams a lot - which tells us what other teams think of Odrick, who showed he's up to the challenge.
Landolt getting some love from The Giant Insider
... G/T Dennis Landolt, an undrafted free agent from Penn State whom the Giants had to offer a higher signing bonus back in the spring to land, has mostly worked at both guard spots, where he has shown fine athleticism and has made some bone-crushing hits to blow defenders off the line. At 6-4, 306, Landolt has looked very stout at the point of attack.

On his SBN profile...
Sean Lee is listed at 242. With the added weight, nice to hear he is doing good things.
Will be fun to watch how these guys do this year.
Thanks for pulling this together.
One man doing the work of 100's for the good of 1000's
Great post!
Wouldn’t mind seeing this type of post throughout the season.
I caught part of the Packers – Seahawks game this weekend and saw Quarless in on a number of plays on the last drive before the half. Had a nice 10 yard reception to keep the drive alive. I didn’t get a chance to see Butler in action, unfortunately. Apparently Butler is looking good in camp and may get a bigger role in the offense.
Also wanted to point out, it is now “NaVorro” Bowman. Peter King tipped me off to this.
Phil
Nice to hear about Quarless
There wasn’t much news on him. Last I heard he was 5th on the Depth Chart and the coaches were saying they need their TEs to be run blockers first and foremost. I hope he makes the roster.

I watched that Rams vs. Browns game...
It was a delight to see the 3 starting St. Louis linebackers, all from Ohio State, miss tackles and get dragged for extra yards by the Browns (The Browns!). Especially as they had been hyped pretty hard by the Cleveland broadcast team. Better still to see Hullstache come in and play well, albeit against the backups.
Yeah, Spagnula (sp?) ripped the poor tackling
He didn’t name names, but he says he put together film on the best tackles of the night for players to review. I’m guessing the Hullstache figures prominently in this.

I turned on that game specifically to watch Hull...
But couldn’t bear Bernie Kosar’s slurred analysis for more than a series or two. What the hell happened to that guy. He’s a friggin’ mess!
Bernie's had a rough time of it the last few years
Nasty divorce, bankruptcy, the whole bit. I hope he can pull himself out of it. There’s a few articles about this, go ask The Google.
