KRL Camp Notes (7/31/15)

Facility Notes
 
- FANTASTIC job by the organization in reshaping the facility for fan
viewing!!!  They learned from their time at Hofstra & Cortland and
really applied it.  The bleachers are top notch with individual seats
that have backs
 
- "Jets Fest" has games and activities for kids and of course the souvenir
tent is there.  They also have free water areas and cooling stations if
you get too hot
 
 
General Notes
 
- Players in shells & shorts
 
- Practice ran for 2 hours and 35 minutes
 
- Willie Colon, Kevin Vickerson & Stevan Ridley are still out
 
- It's noticeable that Sheldon Richardson has been demoted and is seeing
fewer reps
 
- Massive tryout for our punt returner.  Eric Decker, Jeremy Kerley, Walter
Powell, Chris Owusu & Devier Posey all took reps
 
- No 1 on 1 drills today, where you can really see players strengths and
weaknesses.  But Bowles/Gailey do run "mirror" passing drills with 2 QB's
throwing the same patterns in tandem.  Allows more reps for more players
in less time
 
- There's a ton of mixing and matching going on so don't get caught up with
who is #1, #2 or #3 right now.  The only unit staying together is the OLine
(Brick, Carpenter, Mangold, Breno) with Brian Winters & Brent Qvale splitting
time at RG
 
- During team drills Gailey showed the tendency to speed up the offensive
tempo if the defense is slow to react.  Also based on the way they interact
Kevin Patullo (QB coach) is the OC in training.  Patullo does a ton of the
detail work while Gailey oversees the operation.  Sometimes Gailey would
totally focus on the routes the WR's were running and ignore everything
else.  Gailey did take a spill when the defense blitzed and he got knocked
to the ground
 
- Very even practice, no one ran or did pushups so I'm assuming no one won
the competition period.  The defense was excellent in stopping the run while
the offense was effective throwing the ball
 
 
Player Notes
 
- Leonard Williams flashed showing good penetration while splitting time at
DE, NT and DT
 
- IK Enemkpali had a "sack" of Ryan Fitzpatrick during 11 on 11
 
- Quinton Coples had a couple of "tackles for loss" on running plays
 
- Dexter McDougle had a nice day.  He should've had a pick of Fitzpatrick but
he dropped it and he had a "sack"
 
- Jace Amaro had a nice day stretching the middle of the field and not dropping
anything
 
- There was a Shaq Evans sighting he had a solid day 
 
- Watching Brandon Marshall is a pleasure.  He had one of the highlights of the
day making a one handed catch in the corner of the end zone but the ref said
he stepped out.  Everything comes so easy to him, easily the best WR we've had
since Keyshawn Johnson
 
- Gailey was putting Marshall and Eric Decker into some very interesting "stacked
slot" formations.  Which made it very hard for CB's to cover them as they ran
rub routes
 
 
QB Notes
 
- Bryce Petty is a PROJECT don't call for him to play this year.  He needs a ton
of work, his arm is strong but erratic.  I think the reason why is because at Baylor
WR's were running free but in the pros windows are tight.  So sometimes he'll sail
a pass or come up short
 
- Fitzpatrick had a solid day with a couple of TD's to Eric Decker and Saalim Hakim
during red zone drills.  And a nice 30+ yard pass to TJ Graham, but his arm strength
outside the numbers is shaky.  Combine that with a gunslinger mentality and I can see
why he can turn the ball over
 
- Geno Smith was sharp today not because of how many passes he completed but where
he went with the ball.  I made it a point to watch the defensive backfield and the
coverage when he threw the ball.  And he was spot on, throwing into tight windows
and anticipating when a WR was coming open.  He did have one bad throw (almost INT?)
when the defense threw a blitz at him during red zone drills.  His throw to Devin
Smith was a highlight of the day, 30+ yards down the sideline over Marcus Williams
  
 
Standouts
 
- Geno Smith
- Brandon Marshall
- Jace Amaro
- Dexter McDougle
- Quinton Coples

thanks. it's interesting to me that you say his throw to devin smith was a highlight of the day when i saw other people call it an ugly pass that devin made a great play on

 

It was a great play by Devin Smith, he went over Marcus Williams to pull in the ball.  The media likes to

spin things based on their "agenda"

Thanks KRL, great you have you here, and great to read/talk football (getting sick of the drama)

 

Do you see any big differences between practice this year and last?  style of practice we hope talent is better :)

 

The "mirror" passing drills are different other than that it was similar to other practices.  But it was

only my first day

coples is primed to have a major comeback year, and prove he belongs on the dline.  just want amaro and dsmith to open up the offense.

 

From your lips to gods ears....they could really benefit from Q stepping up with Sheldon's situation...curious to see if it leads to more reps on the D-line for Q than he would've had otherwise.

Thanks KRL. Love your camp reports. In Buffalo practice all the Bills QBs combined had 17 pass reps. Sounds like our QBs get a lot of passing reps in 7s and 11s.

 

When Rex finds out he is going to say why are our QBs throwing twice as much as we agreed to?

KRL. You are the man 

 

I will find someone to have your babies sir.

I'm in!

... Must still be waking up as I read this line of your report as -

"Jace Amaro had a nice day stretching". Lol

Prob too early to tell but did either Winters or Qvale do anything that jumped out at you ? (Either good or bad)

As the others have already stated with these reports .... Very much appreciated KRL ... You da man!!!!!!

First of all like many others thanks KRL. Your reports are truly Legendary and have been so for years now.

Good to read about the support for those aching backs lol. I used to hate the old Orange Bowl in Miami for that reason. Evey seat was like that.

Nice read about Chan Gailey and how he used Marshall and Decker. Good insight also on Fitz. The coaches clearly know that Geno provides the best chance to win here. Somehow all the other "agenda" reporters did not mention too much about Williams. I would think the spot light is shining on him a bit more now with Sheldon being sacked for his behavior.

Maybe I expect too much from the "professionals" though.

Anything good about Mauldin?

Was this the case with the Jets new/old expensive secondary on the field? I don't know whether to be encouraged or frightened...

Last year Smith was throwing against Dimtri Patterson, Milliner & McDougle in practice.  This year

he's throwing against Revis, Cro & Skrine.  Obviously the coverage and windows are tighter this

year, if he continues to look sharp there's reason to be encouraged

From what I can gather from various reports, it sounds like his decision making/progressions look quick/sharp so far as well? Would you agree? That would be encouraging to me this early after installing a new system.

It can be completely different once the pads are I and the bullets are flying, but progress is progress.

These McDougle reports are like music to my ears! Now that a young guy like Williams is eased back into a backup nickel & dime role this secondary went from WEAK to VERY DEEP!

I think we'll see Bowles mix up some crazy schemes with much FASTER players on the field during those 3rd and longs that we were burned on so much last year.

Bowles likes to blitz so if you have guys that can cover for that extra second, that's what allows you to do stunts & some delayed blitzing by the LBs & Safeties.

Should be fun to watch the combinations he uses depending on the opponent.

Love the fact we're now deep enough to go BIG vs teams using TEs, QUICK with teams using smaller WRs (Skrine & Dougs).
