A nice Day 1 camp report by ramsman34...

Here's ramsman 34...

Sorry this took so long fellas:

7/30

Spent the day in the VIP tent. So this will not have a lot on team sessions due to being so far away and having obscured view.

81 degrees, 60% humidity, I.e. it felt HOT

D-line - individual and one on one drills
Coach Waffle - all business, cool dude too

Quinn - looks very quick and very flexible. His first step explosion is second to none, not even Donald was a quick in these drills. Could not tell he was coming of major back surgery at all. Then again, no pads, no real hitting. but, players had to engage the acting O-lineman, lock out with their inside arm, then either club, rip, or swim move to get around to the QB.

Donald - Wore a GoPro and the footage is up on the Rams website. He looks leaner but more muscular. His leverage is ridiculous.

The Rest - No one really stood out but almost all looked very good, including Easley. Cam thomas (#92) is a camp body as either/both Fox (#72) and sadly Seau (#72) - things might change for these last two once the pads come on but without these three we have 9 DL who are all vets.

WRs, TEs, and one Todd Gurley stayed after practice and worked the Juggs machine. Each caught at least one full 44-gallon garbage can full of balls. All looked good. The standout for me was Harkey, and here is why; after half a bucket, he started moving closer and closer to the Juggs machine until he was practically on top of it. The ball would scream out and a nano second later Harkey would snatch it and put it away - Impressive!

QBs - limited view, more on them in the 7/31 report.

Mannion - He looked really good actually. His delivery is quicker and more compact and he can put some heat on his throws.
Keenum - God forbid he has to throw a deep out from the far hash. His deeper throws all wobble and have simply no zip on them at all. I will be shocked if he is the starter day 1. His short throw are money, but we already knew that about him.
Goff - As noted by many, a lot of check down and underneath stuff by design. He had one bad exchange under center that came after his only deep shot was thrown late on a post route, picked by C. Davis. But, this kid can rip the ball, was incredibly accurate, and his footwork is something to marvel at - effortless.
