KRL Camp Notes (7/26/24)

[KRL]

General Notes

- Players still in shirts and shorts

- Practice ran 1:55, I wonder if continuity on both sides of the ball (4th year
for the defense, 2nd year on offense with Rodgers) is allowing more work/reps
to be done in a shorter time frame.  Would be a good question for the media to
ask Robert Saleh

- Tyron Smith was given a "vet day off" and coached up Olu Fashanu when he wasn't
riding the bike.  With Smith out Fashanu took his reps with the #1's at LT

- Mike Williams is progressing in his rehab as he's now working with trainers on 
the side field

- Morgan Moses is getting closer as he was more involved/physical in positional
drills

- Alijah Vera-Tucker was a full participant and back at his RG position

- I would say the offense won this practice as they remained fairly consistent 
throughout.  Closing out practice by winning the "red zone" period and forcing
the defense to do pushups

Special Teams Notes

- Greg Zuerlein made his first appearance of the summer and was a perfect 6/6 from
the 30, 33, 35, 37, 45 and 55 yard line

Defense Notes

- A day where second and third level players made plays as they try to make the
back end of the roster or practice squad:

 * Michael Clemons set the edge well against the run in his reps and "tackled"
   Braelon Allen for no gain
 * Leki Fotu and Takk McKinley teamed up on a "sack" of Tyrod Taylor
 * Jaylen Key (Mr. Irrelevant) had an INT as he picked off a 30+ yard pass from
   Andrew Peasley to Marcus Riley.  Showing good range as he roamed from the middle
   of the field to the sideline to make the pick
 * Jimmy Ciarlo (LB) got an INT as he snatched the ball from the hands of Kevin
   Foelsch (TE) on a 10 yard pass
 * Finally Nehemiah Shelton (CB) made a leaping INT of a Peasley pass in the end zone

Offense Notes

- Breece Hall had a couple of TD's in his reps.  A 50+ yard run off a slick ball fake and
handoff from Aaron Rodgers.  And during the red zone period Hall caught a sidearm pass from
Rodgers after he retrieved a high shotgun snap

- Irv Charles is excellent on special teams but has work to do on his hands if he wants to
contribute at the WR spot.  He had a bad drop on a 15+ yard pass from Taylor

- Jason Brownlee made an appearance today as he made multiple tight window catches from Taylor
and Peasley in his reps

- Braelon Allen is going to be fun to watch in the RB rotation.  He has the size of a LB and
is willing to run up the middle but has very deceptive speed which allows him to get to the
outside

QB Notes

- Another good day for Aaron Rodgers as he had multiple TDs to Hall, Malik Taylor and Tyler
Conklin.  But what was fascinating to watch was how he uses his cadence and pre-snap motion 
to decipher what the defense is doing.  On one rep he did the following:

 * Used a cadence change to get someone on defense to jump, that didn't work
 * He then sent the RB into motion, the LB didn't follow him indicating they were playing zone
 * Finally he sent a WR into motion, the CB followed across the formation indicating the
   secondary was in man
 * With that knowledge Rodgers then called for the snap and attacked the man coverage in the
   secondary as he zipped a 15+ yard completion to Allen Lazard

- Tyrod Taylor with a couple of nice plays on the day, a 40+ yard bomb to Malik Taylor over
Qwantez Stiggers.  And a "4th down" TD to Jeremy Ruckert during the red zone period

- Andrew Peasley continues to indicate that he could be worth investing in.  Even though he
didn't hit on his bomb attempts he showed good vertical arm strength.  Peasley also showed
decent anticipation as he threw a 20+ yard pass to Kenny Yeboah before he came out of his
route

Standouts

- Aaron Rodgers
- Backup defenders

[David Harris]

With AR we don’t have to listen to “the defense has an advantage at this point in camp”

[Falco21]

Pretty amazing to watch a qb like that operate.

The use of motion is very interesting to hear and has been a standout note over the first 3 practices.

The Hackett system has never been in doubt for me; his ability to run that system with a QB that isn’t Rodgers-tier in terms of their mental acumen has always been the question.  It’s basically Schotty all over again.  If you have a Rodgers, Brady, Peyton Manning, Chad Pennington brain at QB it will absolutely pick you apart.  However, the system is so dependent on the QB controlling everything so it can be incorporated and executed in a lethal way that if you have anything less than that in terms of QB brain power…it isn’t going to be pretty.

Basically, this offense really can’t be effective when dumbed down and Hackett isn’t a good enough play-caller on his own to compensate for the bad QB play.

The best day of the offseason are when KRL camp notes are back! Thank you @KRL

[Ghost]

I seriously love Rodgers. 

[Larz]

Jimmy Ciarlo (LB) got an INT as he snatched the ball from the hands of Kevin
   Foelsch (TE) on a 10 yard pass
 

This my guy. Hope he makes the PS.

Tua has the same agent as Jordan Love.  I don’t think that contract is far off either.

The NFL has been criticized for underpaying its players. Ultimately, the wealthy owners and executives continue to reap benefits from the efforts of the hardworking athletes.

Love has an interesting case cause he can use the packers sitting him against them.  He can say they ruined his chance to make big money by sitting him for 3 years. 

So instead of saying, “Well Love has only one year of production”.

You turn that around and say, “Well thats your fault.  I produced when you put me in and ur sure as hell not punishing me because u chose to draft and then sit me”.

This goes for every business. The owners take the risk, they make the money. If it didn't work that way, who would open a business and where would we shop?

The big winner here is Jordan Love:

• He got to develop slowly under Rodgers, and not get thrown in the deep end too soon like Jets QBs.  
• Had he started earlier and played well, he most certainly would have been given an extension after year 3.  That would likely be much less than the contract he gets. 
• Let's say Love played earlier but looked ok, kind of like Daniel Jones.  He plays year 4 for much less, and maybe even year 5 under the option.  But by not playing enough to entice GB to even pay him the fifth year option, Love got/will get:
  • A new contract for year 4 for much more than he previously agreed.
  • An extension at 2024 Tua+ rates for multiple years. 
• Jordan Love is looking like the winner here.

Thanks for the great Camp Notes, KRL!!!

[JetNation]

The NY Jets Training Camp day three is over, and it featured another efficient practice thanks to continuity on both sides of the ball. Tyron Smith took a vet day off, while Olu Fashanu stepped up at LT. Mike Williams and Morgan Moses showed progress in their rehabs. Alijah Vera-Tucker returned as a full participant. The offense excelled, winning the red zone period, while the defense saw standout plays from second and third-level players. Special teams highlighted Greg Zuerlein’s perfect field goal performance. Stay tuned for more updates as the Jets gear up for an exciting season. Here is the full KRL #JetsCamp Report.

Was Ben at practice?

[BCJet]

The fact that anyone would criticize the staff or JD for giving Tyron Smith the rest days is astounding to me.  Not only is he easily talented enough to be afforded these days off to assist in keeping him healthy but it also allows our future LT to get first team reps - literally the definition of win-win. 

Teams tend to have unrealistic expectations for first rounders and good organizations tend to bring their rookies along slowly as they are usually picked to replace a veteran in their second year.  Going from college to the pre-draft/combine, then flying all over for team meetings, then the draft, minicamps, etc is a HUGE drain on these guys and to have the opportunity for a rookie to learn behind someone is a huge benefit to their long term success.

Cant wait to see McDonald take a big leap and quiet his critics.

[Jet_Engine1]

I just want to thank @KRL for this fantastic work. Your reports are 1000X better than the "Professional" Media and are GREATLY appreciated!

 

Thank you, sir!!

I love these notes. Very way to follow and concise

Good job KRL

Keeping him healthy is a huge difference maker for this team. I am glad to see they are at least trying that and have a plan.

That's still a business that needed someone's time and money to start. Amazon would not exist if there were no businesses to make products for sale.
