OTA REPORT, from a fan. Thursday, June 8, 2006.

hey thx gb,

Why the hell is brett throwing picks again though. not a good sign

Brett's only trying to make the CB's @ the OTA's appear toooo good - to draw the attention of the likes of Al Harris and Rod Woodson to get them worried that their jobs arn't safe.

Favre said that he has thrown more pass's at this point than any time in his career thus far into the off season and he's not going to extend himself or overthrow and risk tendonitis developing.

Favre will be awesome this year, if we are more set with REAL targets to throw to .

its not that i don't think brett will be good this year, but its a little Disappointing

brett also said his arm is still out of shape right now, he said he just started throwing a bit a few weeks ago. so that might have something to do with the int's. he also mentioned something about the picks and what he should have done different, so you have to hope he's learning.

he also mentioned that his arm will be the last thing to go on his body

Man, How long does OSU have classes anyhow?

The colleges around here have been out for weeks and summer school is getting ready to start.

Give us a full Hawk report when it goes down.

Good job, BTW.

NOAH HERRON RAN WITH THE FIRST TEAM TODAY! Gado was the No. 2 back.

Wow. Is this more of a sign that Gado's not doing well or has Herron really been impressive this camp? I've read previously that Gado's doing too much thinking and not read/reacting quickly. How do you think Gado has been doing with the new blocking scheme?

I wonder if perhaps they just needed to get him in there for a little bit--especially considering that by the last 2 games of last season he was the "featured" back. Both Brett and M3 said Sam's doing fine. I think they just needed to see what they have in Herron and have him at least work with #1 team a bit while Ahman and Najeh are still out.

I really believe with his attitude screwed in as it is that Samkon Gado will be very good. He hasn't shown us much else.

I was at the OTA also, and Favre threw 2 INT's as well YESTERDAY alone....if you're going to pick on Rodgers, open up the book on Favre.

Also, if you were there yesterday, if you saw Cundiff practicing onside kicks...wow...it was pretty sweet. never seen anyone do it like that before.

[ND72]

And about Samkon Gado...again, trying not to hate. But, Edgar Bennett did mention that Herrion has picked up the offense quicker and is understanding it better than Gado has. He did have a couple good runs in practice yesterday, but on one play, he didn't actually run the play correctly....the zone was an inside zone, and was meant to go inside, where there was plenty of room to run, but instead decided to bounce outside where there was no room, but still ended up with 5 yards....probaly could have been more though if he had followed his guys.

Herron was damn good at Northwestern. I thought he looked a little slow last season, but apparently he is in better condition now.
